Brenna Sahatjian - Voidface lyrics

A void for a face, an abyss for a heart...sleeping for years just beneath the most alarming surface A farce for a name, deceit for a tongue...but waking from tremors of latent purpose Stretching, yawning, mumbling breathy reasons for why we've been sleeping so long This hungry void for a culture, resistithat abyss for a hope Against young anger distilled, extracted These veins filled with their increasingly neutralized blood They got a farce they call leader, deceit they call currency As that sedated dream deepens their world and their selves rot from within Awake! and running now ahead of the other towards a road and a fork and a choice that we all must make Awake, so I wait for them but they pa** me and they're smiling, and they're hypnotized by the idea of a righteous fate If awake why conflicted? why the tug of war will? why the decision to run for which we've got nothing to show? Except the internal currents that move muscles to running We follow them, but are we ever sure what we know? A diplomat for a face, a nuke for a heart But amba**ador, aren't you sleeping through Ecstacy's Gift of The New? It's a reflex of a rebellion, it's some kind of love that makes us hate the state But comrade, are we now only awake in the dream of the vehement few? Stretching, yawning, mumbling breathy reasons for why we've been sleeping so long Attention all mounds of slumber, it is time to go now So animate yourselves and come along
