Lyrics Surface - Assemblage 23

Surface

Fall, seize
I am merely debris
Scattered along the ground
False rage
A man in a cage
An explosion without a sound
Drawn in
By the deafening din
Crumbling into dust
Look down
Watching me drown
Choking on my disgust
And when I surface again
I will not breathe the same air as you
And once my enemies are slain
My lungs will drink the liquid sky
Sink, sleep
Drawing me deep
Pulling me underneath
Push, strain
For the distant terrain
Struggling just to breath
Freeze, fold
A story untold
A disaster that could have been
A precursor perhaps
To the cruelest collapse
A sign that I should have seen
And when I surface again
I will not breathe the same air as you
And once my enemies are slain
My lungs will drink the liquid sky
Burst through
The smothering blue
Falling into the sky
Rebirth
For whatever its worth
If only just to defy
Crush, burn
With little concern
Feasting upon my prey
Tear, rend
Expediting the end
Of everything in my way
And when I surface again
I will not breathe the same air as you
And once my enemies are slain
My lungs will drink the liquid sky
