The Radient Video (MV)

Nothing grows anymore
The trees are hollow and dry
Everywhere, forever shadows
Scorched earth and sky
This water tastes metallic
It will give you dreams, she cries
Of wild, vivid colours
Oils floating on the surface of your mind
I watched her dissolve right in front of me
Like melting wax in the sun
So deranged by this
So completely
That my grief becomes relief
A comfortable deceit
Just another missing piece
Of a world we cannot see
I drank that water in
The dreams would come for me soon
I drank that water in and dreamt of you
Our ancestors put coins on the eyes of their dead
Prepared the body and the soul
Cut out the heart, preserved them in jars
The body left with just the toll
But she ended where she stood
No time for ritual, and I collected what I could
The only pieces that didn't fade
I put her teeth in a tin
Her gold ring on an old length of string
I can already see limbs of electric blue
When I close my eyes
It's approaching and I am not afraid
Of the madness or what else may arise
I place bets with myself
On which will be first
I place bets with myself
On which will be first
Wake up, wake up
What's in that water?
'Cause now it's hard to breathe
Wake up, wake up
What's in that water?
'Cause now it's hard to breathe
Is this punishment, the great correction for what I've done?
There is no power here
Is this salvation?
Is this punishment
The great correction for what I've done?
There is no power, no control
Is this salvation?
It hovers then jumps from point to point
This colossal choice was my fault
Ten thousand years of sleep
Dragged against the rock and salt
I smell solitude
Like an old cold stone
An invisible force willing me
To get up and go
