Once in the Styx

[Verse 1]
I've seen it
Once out in the Styx
And you'll feel it
Gliding down your sides
And these tenterhooks
Hang taut dead air
You can't plead with-
I've seen it

[Pre-Chorus]
And it’s a poisoned chalice
I'm going the same way
And it's an open furnace
Blazing sense away
But if I tense I shield you
But when I tense I burst
I think of Florida Keys
But crease 'cos here it comes again...

[Chorus]
Once you've seen it. It never leaves
Once you've seen it. It never leaves
Once you've seen it. It never leaves
Once you've seen it
You could never know
You must never know
'Cos once you've seen it. It never ends
Once you've seen

[Verse 2]
Life, is a fake
Is an answer to all mistakes
Faith, is the knife
To the cancer you can't impale
Set sail, in the Styx
Once in Autumn, haven't been since
In a hive, or in a clique
All dead pixels swimming in shit

[Pre-Chorus]
I've seen it
Once out in the Styx
And you'll feel it
Gliding down your sides
And these tenterhooks
Hang taut dead air
But you'll see me
Slicing seas apart

[Chorus]
Once you've seen it. It never leaves
Once you've seen it. It never leaves
Once you've seen it. It never leaves
Once you've seen it
You could never know
You must never know
'Cos once you've seen it. It never ends
Once you've seen

[Bridge]
God's a good reason
God's a good game
God's a non-believer
God's in vain
God's a good reason
God's a good game
God's a non-believer
God's in vain
God's a good feeling
God's a good name
God's a good heathen
God's a good fake

[Chorus]
Once you've seen it. It never leaves
Once you've seen it. It never leaves
Once you've seen it. It never leaves
Once you've seen it
You could never know
You must never know
'Cos once you've seen it. It never ends
Once you've seen
