scarcity - scorched vision lyrics

Loading...

rigors and strictures
in the house of devotion

to trespass with care and grace
to conserve strength
to consume salt, to shed dead weight
below a baleful sky, to seek my place

i cast out for the parched ways
i become what you need me to be

kneeling seared in the sand
in blistered tones, i plead
for the ghost of this fleshless land
to alight in the shattered trees

i am touched by exhaustion’s hand
sweat+beads bejewel my face
i abjure the strength to stand
and persist in attitudes of faith

drained in delirium’s canyon
in awe of the mystery
vision, reveal yourself to me

in the red
my wretched crest
unwinds, cracks open
ashen, gasping
the distal blade of hemotoxin
cleaves the horizon
cleansed by dust, at last i see
that tender flower
scorched but lovely
in mourning, secure
from forgotten enemies
in this abyss of rock and sun
in this erased inland sea
