Tomorrow's Man - Inside, Instead (For Nate) Lyrics

Burning
Alive
Intentions blind
Red sighs
Lies
Xes for eyes
A writhing begins its twist inside
A writhing begins to twist inside

Phantoms flicker, writhe, hues only in red and gray
Phantoms flicker, flicker and writhe, between you and I...

While burning and blind, we could wonder why
Between you and I...
While burning and blind, we could cry
Between you and I...
While burning and blind, we could pray
Between you and I...
While burning and blind, we hide inside, instead

We were a glare connected by a vein of silver
We were a bared-teeth rictus of talismen
We were a shared skin scarred by shards of fire

We were the fingernails scratching VOODOO into glass
We were the damage wrought by the words of the charlatans

Corroding in the sea
Life is casualties
Corroding in the sea
Life is casualties

We were the battle raging against the cooling crimson
The heart beats inside this soft red oblivion
We were the fools who dared to spit fire into the abyss
Now the heart inside holds shards instead
We were the bleat of scorched laughter the morning after reality
The heart inside - this soft red oblivion
Now we're a bitternaked conversation
Instead

Corroding in the sea
Life is casualties
Corroding in the sea
Life is casualties

We were furious and blindly feeding
We were candle flames, then cobalt hands
We were the storms outside, we were shards of lightning
Now we're cooling crimson inside, instead
Now we're cooling around our shards, instead
Now we're cooling around our scars
Instead

Now cooling
