The Owl

Bless the sky and pray
Bless the sky and wait
Bless the sky this night
Bless the sky and wait

She's always listening
When you're sleeping
She's always watching
When you're awake
The owl she perches
With fine precision
She feels you breathing
Now and every day

Such a fool to believe
The words you speak you own
They were placed in front of you in a trail you followed
Now you preach them to the people and they bow down low
To the future she designed from her tree hollow

She offers syrup
For intoxication
But only in ways that she desires
The queue is growing
For mass sedation
We're sleep walking through an endless life

Such a fool to believe
The words you speak you own
They were placed in front of you in a trail you followed
Now you preach them to the people and they bow down low
To the future she designed from her tree hollow

When I think of you in my sleep
My teeth grind to a halt
They grind down slowly to a powder
Trickling off my tongue
The fairy comes to collect and she sells it for love
She knows the owl is watching every day
Making sure her world is turning and burning how she likes it
Again gain we come to resist this thought
But then again gain she's feeding us every single thought
I watch her open up their gullets and force it down
But it's hard to sell a lie with blood on your hands
Shifting the blame, it's only a game when
you convince the children to give their lives in your name

She's always listening
When you're sleeping
She's always watching
When you're awake
The owl she perches
With fine precision
She feels you breathing
Now and every
And every
And every
And every
