Vermin Circle

Refused from the light
I am caressed by fear
Shine down on me
As I change
Stale windows, cracked
Close my eyes to remember
But the picture is tainted
The life light
From which I feed
Has passed me by once over

Time is running out
So don't pass me by
Pat myself on the chest
And go on
Run

Bashing up against the surf
Effortless
Precious consciousness
Imperilled my eyes

Close the door
Don't let the rain come in
Steal the light
Out of my eyes

Taken down
Savour this moment
And bleed with the innocent
I have no room
For pity in this song

Vermin circle

The wind is making it impossible
For me to hear you scream
Let the wait be over

Time is running out
So don't pass me by
Parallel streams
Are striking
Striking through

Time is running out
So don't pass me by
We're standing still too long
Our skin is falling
Apart
