song title / lyrics

"Defiant Whisper"

And on your way to your extinction
It was revealed to me
In perfect normalcy:
My engine

And to the low whose count as numbers
They shall cascade and flee
To space cemeteries:
My savior, of the most wretched class

I was my own defiant whisper
I caught them as they passed through me
Revealed in perfect normalcy:
The traitor at the beleaguered feast

And such sacrifices require danger
And though I leave behind my sole, resentful child
It is far better than to internalize

So throw each coin into the fountain
In waiting for the voice wake us
Guide us to the place where we can burn out
Your light shines on those most efficient

They move up to the front of line
And slow the process of each mind
So solvent and purified, it's ours to find
When springtime calls, realize your wrongs

Purified, and ours to find
When springtime calls, realize your wrongs
