lyrics

Come slowly sober death
As sunlight creeping through
Earth is a warm and beautiful dream
The rest is trying to kill you

Everything retreating
The void is always eating
Robbing us of form, of purpose, of meaning
Cosmic sea reclaims the land
The holes in my teeth deepen
Nothing cast in matter
Won't buckle or weaken

We think of ourselves as solutions
The conclusion to evolution
We scuttled in ugly spindle legs
Far longer than we've been humans
Decay
The stoic enforcer
Disease
The outraged revenge
Extinction
The constant wash and foam of subtle change

Never taking form
Never coming to an end

Cannibal cosmos, so mechanical
That made the only animal that knows that it will die
Cannibal, only mind and mineral
Permanence is an illusion born from the shortness of our lives

Triton, doomed moon of Neptune
Dragged backwards to destruction
Fate parallel to humans
If time has an author
We’re its early, single letters
The scrawl of an infant maker who will learn to write better

Everything retreating
Weak and losing meaning

Cannibal cosmos, so mechanical
That made the only animal that knows that it will die
Cannibal, only mind and mineral
Permanence is an illusion born from the shortness of our lives

No matter how certain, how sure, how strong
No matter how certain, how sure, how strong

Nothing stops the patient sea and none survive the sun
None survive the sun
None survive

Cannibal cosmos, so mechanical
That made the only animal that knows that it will die
Cannibal, only mind and mineral
Permanence is an illusion born from the shortness of our lives

As go cattle
So go men
As go worlds
So go men
As go stars
So go men
Not so distant
In the end
