atlas - memento mori lyrics

[atlas]
here lies a man. dead, naked on a metal slab
blank slate, eyes wide shut, roll tape
they found him ridin ‘round in my halloween town
pound of greens on him fiends on him for the low down
they took his shirt off and inscribed him with his fate
but where his story ends you and i turn the page
now he’s memento mori, the truth of what’s comin for me:
decomposition, worms and pinewood. to god goes the glory
the hand that feeds you might be servin you poison
the new sonic youth so we’re bringin the noise in
had a taste of love now i’m thirstin for more
watchin waves change to horses as they gallop for the sh0r-
i am dexter sinister. welcome to my temple
watch your step in here cuz my ways ain’t simple
though i smile all day, you will never see the dimple – deep
pocket full of pain cuz humanity is crippled
and my vision cinematic, fully lit up in my attic
euphoric and ecstatic though i know there’s h-ll and sufferin
god blessed a child with nothin left to lose
i dropped out my mother, considered it paid dues
bitter earth blues in the mornin. muddy water is my
cup of coffee. black and overflowin blood & pain
any man raise a hateful hand against his brother
he destroys his mother, stands before his father with the mark of cain
i maintain that you’re livin life in vain unless you’re
speakin from the heart, tryin hard to stop the la haine
shame? i use my tears to wipe away the stain and leave
a song of freedom ringin in my ears to cancel out my fears
i open up and see the world in it’s perfection
know i’m off the mark, but do my best to step in that direction
no question. i’m facin forward walkin down the road
i open my mouth, my inner vision is exposed and it’s beautiful
