Accident of Birth
Journey back to the dark side, back into the womb
back to where the spirits move like vapor from the tomb
the center of the cyclone, blowing out the sun
break the shackles of your union to the light
I might've had a brother
as i was born, they dragged him under
to the other side of twilight
he's waiting for me now
Nativity was lost on me
i didn't ask, i couldn't see
what created me
what and where and how
Welcome home - it's been too long, we've missed you
welcome home - we've opened up the gates
welcome home - to your brothers and sisters
welcome home - to an accident of birth
Feel our bodies breathing as you try to stop believing
there's nothing you can do about your shadows
you can fight us, you are like us
and your body will betray you
lay down and die like all the others
Where are the angels and their wings of freedom?
jesus had his day off when they pulled you through...
Welcome home - it's been too long, we've missed you
welcome home - we've opened up the gates
welcome home - to your brothers and sisters
welcome home - to an accident of birth
(to an accident of birth)
Vision's growing dim as the daylight fades away
i'm spinning, twisting, black
well, it's your dying day
Welcome home - it's been too long, we've missed you
welcome home - we've opened up the gates
welcome home - to your brothers and sisters
welcome home - to an accident of birth
Welcome home - it's been too long, we've missed you
welcome home - we've opened up the gates
welcome home - to your brothers and sisters
welcome home - to an accident of birth
back to where the spirits move like vapor from the tomb
the center of the cyclone, blowing out the sun
break the shackles of your union to the light
I might've had a brother
as i was born, they dragged him under
to the other side of twilight
he's waiting for me now
Nativity was lost on me
i didn't ask, i couldn't see
what created me
what and where and how
Welcome home - it's been too long, we've missed you
welcome home - we've opened up the gates
welcome home - to your brothers and sisters
welcome home - to an accident of birth
Feel our bodies breathing as you try to stop believing
there's nothing you can do about your shadows
you can fight us, you are like us
and your body will betray you
lay down and die like all the others
Where are the angels and their wings of freedom?
jesus had his day off when they pulled you through...
Welcome home - it's been too long, we've missed you
welcome home - we've opened up the gates
welcome home - to your brothers and sisters
welcome home - to an accident of birth
(to an accident of birth)
Vision's growing dim as the daylight fades away
i'm spinning, twisting, black
well, it's your dying day
Welcome home - it's been too long, we've missed you
welcome home - we've opened up the gates
welcome home - to your brothers and sisters
welcome home - to an accident of birth
Welcome home - it's been too long, we've missed you
welcome home - we've opened up the gates
welcome home - to your brothers and sisters
welcome home - to an accident of birth
