Lyrics City of the Faceless - Seeming

City of the Faceless

They built a church
In the stairwell
Of a highrise
In the city
Nobody asked
They just did it
It just happened
In the city
In the city
In the city
She is not she
Is not he
Taking godhood
Tall and dizzy
I am the bull
Come to life
Stabbing bankers
Without pity
In the city
In the city
And when we go there
We will rise
And shed our bodies
We’ll be weightless
In the city of the faceless
Now we twist the trains
Stop the stoplights
Hex the history
In the city
Our breath turns to birds
And our kissing
Turns to tigers
Running swiftly
Through the city
Through the city
And when we go there
We will rise
And shed our bodies
And we’ll be weightless
In the city of the faceless
And I will lose my name with you
And I will fade away from view
As we both push on through and through
The hidden alleys no one knows
The unlit nights, the Chinatowns
Where every street is hallowed ground
Where sewers shake with revenant sound
That’s louder faster brighter
When we go there
We will rise
And shed our bodies
And we’ll be weightless
In the city of the faceless
