lyrics

An angel came down
To tell me of self-doubt,
She was filled with insects' poison
Till her innards fell out

Kill the slaves that ran away
And let the rats free now,
The fleeting man with the sheet in hand
Calls the master out

Chorus
The consequence you can't conceive
For everything that you believe
Haste the day,
Mother's away,
Mechanical profundities

So holy roll and stone the crow
And everything between,
Rest your head upon my bed,
The mattress so unclean

Chorus
The consequence you can't conceive
For everything that you believe
Haste the day,
Mother's away,
Mechanical profundities

The artists heart is in your cart,
A natural tendency
To kill the man with the brush in hand
And consume him for a fee

His last collage, such a mirage,
Before he set himself free,
So take down his heart and tear it apart
Or just let him be.
