31

My ways they've come undone
The strings came apart
And I fell out of the knot
What tied me down escaped this ground
The laces holding me together came undone

A specter has been circling in my dreams
It settled like a statue, an iconic flame
A spark to keep the peer tamed
Now I kneel in mud and water, and skin I peeled
You brought the fuel, held the chains, gave me faith

I always strive to know what might come up ahead
Then you locked yourself right into my head
But meet with the 31, now tell me what you've done
You told this union had to die, cuz of the fear in your eye

A sundown only two can own
Peace like only before a mighty storm
Then the water started pouring in
When the hurricanes came, I scattered with the winds

I no longer cast any shade
As my spirit seems to have fallen into decay
For what it's worth winter will sweep away the cursed
As she strokes the bald head of the barren earth

Meet with the 31, now tell me what you've done
A union was told they were to die cuz of the fear in your eyes
Curse the day you were born - you wretched 31
Store in an empty glass, the memories we had, you and I and the cursed 31

This light throws so many shades, have worn the face of friends and enemies
The road is as rugged as my soul
But I signed this seal with the salts of my heart
Then why do I break it apart

Meet with the 31, now tell me what you've done
A union was told they were to die cuz of the fear in these eyes
Curse the day that you were born - restless and torn
Store in an empty glass, memories we had, you and I and the cursed 31
