vulture industries - tyrants weep alone lyrics

i stand before you naked and inadequate
a vessel bound to rot
like so many have before me
and yet more to come, beneath the turf my lot
but first i offer you my love
if you can make use of me still
pray earth will not consume me yet before, my friend
i know you’ve heard my plea
i have been proud, i have been envious and vile, and i have feasted greedily
yet i offer you my lovе
if you can make use of it still

all flesh grows wеak
skin becomes bleak
all joints will creak
bones turn to dust
each passing hurts
bound to the earth
a painful birth

you and i are bound together, by a bond stretched through sp+ce and time
and even if we never meet, in some way i am yours and you are mine
i have been lost, i have been searching, not knowing what i hoped to find
and on the way i’ve seen such sights to take my eyes and leave me blind
i saw
wildfires raging, all seeming doomed
for a brief moment there i saw you
then i knew nothing could break us
knew nothing could really make us
snapping our bones would only shake us
yet force could never, ever truly make us
wildfires raging, all seeming doomed

for a brief moment there i saw you
bent yet unbroken beneath an unforgiving sky
defiant refusing to lie down and let the night take you

these days it’s all about old men and what they see when they look into the cheval glass
each eager to plan his last mass, and have the hereafter talk about how he went out with real class

man, you’ve got to know
if you keep staring at the world through reflective brass
what you try to see it will show
that your own head is in the way of what you try to grasp
and your head’s a long way up your ass
