Disconnecktie: The Faithful Vampire (O God, The Aftermath 2005)

Текст песни Norma Jean - Disconnecktie: The Faithful Vampire (O God, The Aftermath 2005)

It's taken me 50,000 separate wrecks to get here
And I've learned
I've learned absolutely nothing
As I'm standing here alone
Upright and motionless
And I'm drowning in her sea
The rising and sinking of every consciousness I've ever known
Now detached and disconnected
The endless cycle of idea and action
Endless invention
Endless experiment
Endless hope
Endless disappointment

And I thought all I needed was just one breath to stay afloat
For me it was like...
Like the breath, the last breath
The last breath that I never wanted
Any of this
I never thought that this would capsize
But this isn't a boat, its a coffin!
And now I'm moving forward
Into the sea... into the great sea

So I begin with the end in mind
The cycles of heaven
20 centuries gone by
20 centuries gone by
Come home

But the end is coming like a flood
It's going to be a year for growing
And the greatest amount of forgetting
My sea is dying
But death is a doorway
And at the very root of me I know this
I know this
It's the greatest reminder
What a broad world to roam in
What a sea to swim in
What a sea to swim in
So I begin with the end in mind
