Vanishers

(album: City Burials - 2020)

Drifting like wood our years
In the rivers of the aftermath
They shattered our right to wonder
Delivered us from free will
Our stories were thrown on the fire
Burning like bibles
They shattered our right to wonder
Exposed us to constraint

Hey we're dead now
Affinity has been found below the ground
Beyond the heart's vow
The open road amnesia bound

Our carbon shells deserted
We came so far for nothing
Unsung
Fixed on dead grass

Who will remain
And wake up to the sound of sorrow

Hey we're dead now
Affinity has been found below the ground
Beyond the heart's vow
The open road amnesia bound

When your skies are clearing
When your battles are fought
When mercy returns
To all of your thoughts
Remember the carnage
The vanishers trail
Our souls of the sunset
Drifting away

Hey we're dead now
Affinity has been found below the ground
Beyond the heart's vow
The open road amnesia bound
