Artifice
Salt the wound
And burn the bodies
Everything came into view
What was shown to you?
But what was shown to you?
The stars in space
The eyes are staring
Satellites are drifting through
Shining just for you
Synthetic shining hue
Where will you run to
When the sky comes crashing down?
The art of this artifice
Distorted RGB crown
No cold, no warm, utter darkness
Nothing here to cast a shape
Empty void of space
Substance long erased
Hear the fear, transient image
Directed through static haze
Building up the fake
Artificial take
Rainbow eyes in disguise
Shining for the world to see
Look upon our image
The artifice of the screen
We built this with our blood
God forgive us what we've done
We've built this with our blood
God forgive us what we've done
And burn the bodies
Everything came into view
What was shown to you?
But what was shown to you?
The stars in space
The eyes are staring
Satellites are drifting through
Shining just for you
Synthetic shining hue
Where will you run to
When the sky comes crashing down?
The art of this artifice
Distorted RGB crown
No cold, no warm, utter darkness
Nothing here to cast a shape
Empty void of space
Substance long erased
Hear the fear, transient image
Directed through static haze
Building up the fake
Artificial take
Rainbow eyes in disguise
Shining for the world to see
Look upon our image
The artifice of the screen
We built this with our blood
God forgive us what we've done
We've built this with our blood
God forgive us what we've done
