Iapetus - For Creatures Such as We lyrics

Artist: Iapetus

album: The Body Cosmic


Lifegiver
Burn bright
Sear flesh from bone
Boil blood in veins
Gild this glass heart, fuel I am
Chase away the darkness
Dancing flames, on chariots ride
To unmake the absence - to drown out the stars
Lifegiver
Give life
Reach out
Stretch across infinity
To infinity, from infinity
Ribbons of flame across the void
Yellow tendrils grasp at cosmic straws
Defy the universe to grant us sight
Gild this glass heart before it breaks
An elegant orbit
Two bodies as one
Gravitational caress
A waltz of fire to scorch the abyss
Lifegiver
Shine light
Set a fire to this corner of the world
Rid the shadows from these eternal walls
Vanquish the monster of this design
Reveal the path from you to I
Open the sky
Travel the distance
And I will make us whole

I steal a molten kiss from the cosmos
I suck the flaming air from open lungs
You give what you are
I take what I am
A celestial merchant
With nothing to trade
I am alone
I am alone
Your light wanes, your energy expires
I've taken too much
Engulfed entirely by what I've desired
Your death will be the death of us both
But my heart - my heart, it beats still
Be still my heart
Gild this glass heart before it breaks
An elegant orbit
Two bodies as one
Gravitational caress
A waltz of fire to scorch the abyss

Birthed into nowhere
Ignorant of purpose
A howl erupts from this desolate rock
Spiraling outwards
An echo through eternity
Falling upon no ears
Joining the choir of a million cries more
A plea for a spark to ignite the soul
A plea for love in the vastness of it all

Do you hear my call?

Lifegiver
Surrender to me
Burden me with your creations
Paint yourself across this dead space
Illuminate color
Where there was only grey
Plant your seeds in rotten soil
Give yourself unto me, fully
Power me, complete me
And your fading light
Will blanket
My blossoming trees
Lifegiver, give life
Lifegiver, burn out
Lifegiver, give life
Lifegiver, burn out, burn out, burn out, burn out

You are my sun
You are my sun
You are my sun
You are my sun
