Northern Corner
Then approached the weary passenger
I hail from the northern corner
Treading lightly on the border
Of the former long lost citadel
I'm not your enemy I'm just a wanderer
I expect to decline your offer
The old tongues the fallen heritage
Wound up on the floor
We all have ghosts to reckon with now
Forever sheltered under dark clouds
Time's been swallowed whole
Brain's melting like an ice cap pole
Need a chemical to right my soul
He drew a breath he drew a map
He drew the face of a nation gone paralyzed
All the roads bled together on the canvas
All land a distant shore
He lit a fire he told a prophecy
A spirit rose from the burning ashes
Was it a dream or a wide eyed memory
A vision of an open door
We all have dreams to reckon with now
A memory of nothing somehow
We all agree to suffer in hell
Time's been swallowed whole
Brain's melting like an ice cap pole
Need a chemical to right my soul
Time's been swallowed whole
Brain's melting like an ice cap pole
Need a chemical to right my soul
Fever dreams of fever dreams
Future states and fantasies
Shelve these thoughts bury them deep
Pray I fall asleep
I've been swallowed whole
Brain's melting like an ice cap pole
Need a chemical to right my soul
Such a heavy load
Skull's cracking as my brain explodes
Need a chemical to right my soul
I hail from the northern corner
Treading lightly on the border
Of the former long lost citadel
I'm not your enemy I'm just a wanderer
I expect to decline your offer
The old tongues the fallen heritage
Wound up on the floor
We all have ghosts to reckon with now
Forever sheltered under dark clouds
Time's been swallowed whole
Brain's melting like an ice cap pole
Need a chemical to right my soul
He drew a breath he drew a map
He drew the face of a nation gone paralyzed
All the roads bled together on the canvas
All land a distant shore
He lit a fire he told a prophecy
A spirit rose from the burning ashes
Was it a dream or a wide eyed memory
A vision of an open door
We all have dreams to reckon with now
A memory of nothing somehow
We all agree to suffer in hell
Time's been swallowed whole
Brain's melting like an ice cap pole
Need a chemical to right my soul
Time's been swallowed whole
Brain's melting like an ice cap pole
Need a chemical to right my soul
Fever dreams of fever dreams
Future states and fantasies
Shelve these thoughts bury them deep
Pray I fall asleep
I've been swallowed whole
Brain's melting like an ice cap pole
Need a chemical to right my soul
Such a heavy load
Skull's cracking as my brain explodes
Need a chemical to right my soul
