Lyrics Obsequiarch - Boys Night Out

Obsequiarch

«Go on ahead,» she said.
«Love will meet you there
Be steadfast, swift, safe and self-assured.»
«So long,» She said and set it all adrift
I swear, bad luck and longing are a lonely pair
Whose hollow little white lies light the room
Skin, muscle, and bone all die on their own
Enter beating heart (Enter beating heart)
To send blood to the source as veins steady the course
It’s an Obsequiarch leading a march
Of cold, cowardly cells.
«Tell nobody else about the story arc.»
Sigh, say goodnight, be nearby
Beyond the bed, I leapt, fled, and found myself
Untethered attempts to resuscitate
Were met with a deafening tone, wait, recalibrate
Wait, nothing, wait, stop, it’s the only way
Hollow little white lies lined the room.
«It's too soon.»
Skin, muscle, and bone all die on their own
Enter beating heart (Enter beating heart)
To send blood to the source as veins steady the course
It’s an Obsequiarch leading a march
Of cold, cowardly cells.
«Tell nobody else about the story arc.»
Sigh, say goodnight, be nearby
Oh the horror, oh the horror
At night-time stars align and the tide rolls out to sea
I’m barely alive
At night-time I’m colour-blind
So I don’t know where I’ve been or how I survived
The night-time drank me dry
Now I’m drowning but I’ve never felt so alive
It’s night-time all the time
At the bottom where the dead lay but I am alive
It’ll come for you
Oh, the horror
Oh, the horror when it comes for you
