Ghostlimb - Canidae lyrics

The confusion the came in the fall of '87 You warned me before my ears ever heard the shake And sixteen years on I found you placid peaceful and floating alone in that water without so much as a swell or a wake the psychosis we nurture in some inner sancta That suffering is ours and ours alone A callous dangerous and inert indifference If the chosen topic of discussion is agony And the semblance of altruism we wish to maintain The intention is to reject that rule And in every way lessen Avoidable meaningless pain
