[Intro]
In the weak light
I saw you becoming the lie
Taking it all for granted like freedom
It's something you'll never have
[Verse 1]
Forget what's said and hear me sing to you
How I've set out to kill my soul
The nightward ways, the labour it brings
The verdict that I came for, migration's song
[Pre-Chorus]
Patterns of death overwhelms, fixation rise
I came along the way and came to a conclusion
The indifferent sky is made of lead and so beautiful
Submission, come you will
[Chorus]
In the weak light
I saw you becoming the lie
Taking it all for granted like freedom
It's something you'll never have
The parting, end origin
Fade into earth
[Verse 2]
Times ablaze under the flags we chose
Denied my step and froze my heart
Yet I stare with nothing left to do
The verdict that I came for, migration's song
[Pre-Chorus]
Patterns of death overwhelms, fixation rise
I came along the way and came to a conclusion
The indifferent sky is made of lead and so beautiful
Submission, come you will
[Bridge]
Take your well deserved step into darkness
I'll become your eyes, you have no other
We have to walk along the wire
Trust the one that never trusted you
[Chorus]
In the weak light
I saw you becoming the lie
Taking it all for granted like freedom
It's something you'll never have
The parting, end origin
Fade into earth
