Neurosis - Honor Found In Decay Album Lyrics

---

We All Rage In Gold

I'll walk into the water,
To wash the blood from my feet.
My path is ever holding,
My shadows claimed release.

The sky it holds my father,
The sun recalls my soul.
The reason forgotten,
Of the lessons burned in oak.

My always wanting watchers,
They laugh and slash at my mind.
The deafening redeemer,
Lays me down and feeds me time.

Death was my first companion,
It showed me life and it snuffed it out.
The vision never ending.
Of the ghosts through and out.

All the rage in gold the flower...
Pull me in to see,
The battles break me but I am given,
To the lost lord,
Within the circle of clarion's eye.

At The Well

This is no soil to forgive,
The blaze of a helios sky.
Rage will blossom into iron;
Blind as a worm in the earth.

Our pain will rise,
And breath a new dawn.
When the illusion clears,
All we are is blood.

We gnaw and pull at the root;
A starved beast with the mind of a fool.
Skin stretched over bone cannot hide,
The way we are bleeding inside.

Beyond vision bears the drum.
Blood makes no excuse.
The one eyed all become kings,
While shadows creep from dark holes.

A taste of acidic bitter,
Burns the voice out of the skull.
Smoke from a gaping wound;
Spirit already flown.

Views eternal from a sunken eye
Over a bride of spectral light
Winds wither, rake, and weather
Prophecy flows in whispers

In a shadow world,
We hide in light.

The paths become clear, the road's true
Oaths have been sworn.
The temporal spiral away,
Among the teeth of time.

My Heart For Deliverance

Bleeding light in a life spent in broken arms,
can't return my soul to the mountain.
Desperate eyes reach the sleeping dark vessel
filling within the desert.

Visions raining destroying where I began.
Set adrift I pray to the ocean
Waves of dreams,
Bare my heart for deliverance.
The closer I get the further
I become... become... become...

..the beast that conquered me.
And traveled through my head.
And sprayed blood on you.
And left me buried beneath the river

Bleeding The Pigs

When the serpent swallows it's tail,
With a half-eaten heart.
The god of reason deserts me.
Only earth and sky remain;
Mountains shake and wake me.
Words of the seeress reveal.

Carve out my eye that I might see,
Treacherous thoughts unfold.
In time show their nature.
Bleed the pig of its lies.

On the wind we're forced to call.
Call upon the fates as always.

On the wind we're forced to call.
Call upon the fates as always.

Scrape the black tar from your past life.
Let it's weight burn away.
Stand within the guiding power.
Its current draws you clean.

Casting Of The Ages

The sun is rising in the valley
And the sorrow breaks the dawn
The casting of the ages
Shows us one and one

We prepare the passage
We see that it is done
The borrowers they see us
And ask for what has come
Before us lays veils of water
Behind us sets the sun
We'll sleep with no dreams tonight
Tomorrow leave as one

The rising is no illusion
The fallen have become
The wisdom is ancient
Our reason bleeds the sun
Fading through the season
The endless age is one
A temple within us
Brings the judgment to the sun

All Is Found...in Time

In time the silence gives way
The grain betrays our larval state

Seethe Burns All

Standing wild on ragged stones
Waiting to be
To be found
To be found

The water flowing slow and black
The air of the blackbirds all

Standing wild on ragged stones
Waiting to be
To be found
To be found

Looking away from the fall of tomorrow
Tunneling through the black that will follow
Tearing the sickness from hearts that are hollow
Cracking the bones to get at the marrow

Raise The Dawn

I can't walk anymore.
The moon stuck the promise through my heart.
Lightning strikes and leads me through.
Bleeding walls, and the oceans hold on me.

Her fingers reach to raise the dawn.

All the rest have fallen on,
returning to the sun.
All the rest have fallen on,
the pressure released.

Father's distant whispered eyes,
Guide me to the mountains.

Her fingers reach to raise the dawn.

All the rest have fallen on,
returning to the sun.
All the rest have fallen on,
the pressure released.
