Pharaoh

Crowds of lines and floating signs
Mask the rhythm of the riot
The scene is clear, split in two
Electrified and powder blue
Electrified and powder blue
Crushing glass and burning grass
Pinning eyes in crimson walls
A slow decline, an endless dusk
And the curtain starts to fall
And the curtain starts to fall

Fraying nerves
A patient's curse
It's getting worse
It's getting worse

There's me standing in the riot
We're singing in the lanes, we're overtired
It feels new to me, it's all history
There's me standing in the riot

Silent towns afloat on storms
With the colours slowly draining
Drifting waves of smoke and flame
Disappearing in the rain
Disappearing in the rain
I see us there dressed in black
Stand in water, shared in anger
Standing tall it covers us
In a blur that bends the light
In a blur that bends the light

Fraying nerves
A patient's curse
It's getting worse
It's getting worse

There's me standing in the riot
We're singing in the lanes, we're overtired
It feels new to me, it's all history
There's me standing in the riot
There's me standing in the riot
We're singing in the lanes, we're overtired
It feels new to me, it's all history
There's me standing in the riot
