Silurian: Age of Sea Scorpions

Dust
All I see is red
I know this state you're in
Time has come, once again
This is not our habitat
This is not our place to be
No, this is not our place to be

You and me (you and me)
We took great pains
To not get down, to not get down too deep
Down into (down into)
The raging stream
Of our subconscious, our subconsciousness

Shadows are passing by
Sometimes they're close to catching up
Sea scorpions prowl these waters
They are the apex predators
This time we won't surrender
Facing the unknown
Close your eyes, hold your breath
Tell me now, are you really sure
You wanna walk this path once more
We know what's lurking at the end of the road
Blank out all painful reminders of past indignation

Another rough double reality day
I understand now how it feels

To be trapped inside the lair of light
Reflections bouncing off the walls
To be losing any sense, sense of time
While every clear thought dissolves
Learn to embrace the the gift of ambiguity
It sets you free

Another rough double reality day
I understand now how it feels

We have said a few things now
That we have never said before
And I don't know yet what that means
Maybe we will wake up tomorrow
With gratitude and certainty
That all the glaciers will retreat
Yield to warm and shallow seas
Or maybe not
I am super fucked and all I really want is to sleep now

Exposed to my interpretations
Please cut me out of this equation
Release me
My conscience is as clean
As the bluest sky after a storm
You were so proud of our achievements

We have said a few things now
That we have never said before
And I don't know yet what that means
Maybe we will wake up tomorrow
