Emergence

Well, you were laid in verse
Living on a promised word
Well, I am the rose you relinquished again
You and I are down head-first
In another world, I heard
But I have a feeling we're close to the end

So, come on, come on
Out from underneath who you were
Come on, come on now
You know that it's time to emerge

So go ahead and wrap your arms around me
Arms around me, arms around me, yeah
Go ahead and wrap your arms around me
Arms around me, arms around me, yeah
Go ahead and wrap your arms around me
Arms around me, arms around me, yeah
Go ahead and wrap your arms around me
Arms around me, arms around me, yeah

Are you carbide on my nano, red glass on my lightbulb?
Dark light on my culture, sapphire in my white gold?
Burst out of my chest and hide out in the vents
My blood beats, so alive
Might bite right through your lens
It's midnight in my mind's eye, drowning out the daylight
Godspeed to my enemies that be asking for that call sign
You know the behaviour, canines of the saviour
Glory to the legion, trauma for the neighbours

So go ahead and wrap your arms around me
Arms around me, arms around me, yeah
Go ahead and wrap your arms around me
Arms around me, arms around me, yeah
Go ahead and wrap your arms around me
Arms around me, arms around me, yeah
Go ahead and wrap your arms around me
Arms around me, arms around me, yeah

I've got solar flares for your dead gods, space dust for your fuel rods
Dark days for your solstice dancing through the depths of
Hellfire on the winds that started from within
My blood beats so alive, might tear right through my skin
So tell me what you meant by living past your half-life?
In lockstep with the universe and you're well-versed in the afterlife
You know that I'm sanctified by what's below
No matter what you do, no matter where you go

And you might be the one to take away the pain
And let my mind go quiet
And nothing else is quite the same as how I feel when I'm at your side

Come on, come on
Out from underneath who you were
Come on, come on now
You know that it's time to emerge

Go ahead and wrap your arms around me
Arms around me, arms around me

You might be the one to take away the pain
And let my mind go quiet
And nothing else is quite the same as how I feel when I'm at your side
