WATCH YOUR SOUL SINK

Walk the streets

Talk to the locals about them

Convict bricks conceal a condemnation

Set in stone

Wait for dawn

Man on the corner show me your wares

Feed your feet with the blood of them

Feast your eyes on the blues in every goodbye

Holding tight

Just let go

Fine art paves the path into darkness

Watch your soul sink into the water

Feel the weight of it all

Corrupt your exalted ideals

Sink into the water

Catch an omen

There’s so many to pick from

Cast your net wide, glow with the satisfaction

Of one more fish

One less hook

Baiting is a game best for the game

Watch your soul sink into the water

Feel the weight of it all

Corrupt your exalted ideals

Sink into the water
