Lyrics
"In the pit no one admits the chains are for the cameras..."
A hypnotic dive into illusion, perception, and the comfort of the dark. Close your eyes and find the sun.
Lyrics:
The eye is a wound held open by hope
Our shadows color the back of its throat
Everything bleeds everything leaks
Everyone sees as the world weeps
In the pit no one admits
The chains are for the cameras
We're living down in Plato's cave
And no one wants to find the sun
These shadows on the wall
Exactly like we paint them
And everything I see reminds me of you
The sun only cries for the eyes to drink
The moon has to wane for the world to blink
Everything takes everything needs
Everyone gives as the world feeds
In the pit no one admits
The chains are for the cameras
We're living down in Plato's cave
And no one wants to find the sun
These shadows on the wall
Exactly like we paint them
And everything I see reminds me of you
The eye is a wound kept open by fear
It's bleeding a world
From the first eye's tear
Everyone lies everyone waits
Everyone longs as the world hates
In the pit no one admits
The chains are for the cameras
We're living down in Plato's cave
And no one wants to find the sun
These shadows on the wall
Exactly like we paint them
And everything I see reminds me of you
