Lyrics Portraits of Decay - Dust Bolt

Portraits of Decay

Blood that’s dropping silently
Washed away beneath dead leaves
Storms are weeping desperate cries
A world that’s dying
Right before our eyes
But yet another day we are crumbling away
As time attests its impact in the mirror of decay
The bottles are speaking volumes
To nurse the pain of change
As grounds that once seemed solid decided just to fade
I can see it’s coming near disease
When all that’s seeded once grew wide becomes your enemy
As we burn all that is left to be
Light a fire burning down the rest of me
Our hands are bound in fury and the seas
Seem to with this dying day
With these portraits of decay
How should I catch the light when I can’t even catch myself
Too far away clarity seems distant with this cold abandoned hell
And we take and we take but who cares who’s to give
If we lose our hearts did we ever exist
It just feels like an edgeless dagger stinging into the ribs
I can see it’s crawling nearer, a cold disease
When all that’s seeded once grew wide becomes your enemy
As we take all that is left to be
Drink my blood and eat the rest of me
The plants are dug in fury and the seas
To enslave the ways of this dying breed
I wonder if it matters if I leave or if I stay
Will it get worse or just a painful other day
With these portraits of decay
The plants are dug in fury and the seas
To enslave the ways of this dying breed
I wonder if it matters if I leave or if I stay
Will it get worse or just a painful other day
With these portraits of decay
