Battering Ram Video (MV)

Night and the hunger starts to stir the rising moon upon the earth
Hide where you will, the malice lurks in the depths, in the dirt
All that's left is to submerge and defer to the curse
Rise as desire and fire emerge from the heart of this darkened lair

Tonight the snake forfeits its sleep
All the time you writhe inside the cellar of your dreams
Tonight I'll free you with my battering ram
Throw out the martyr and open up, here it comes
Savour the hole and salvage your soul

All this freaking out, instead of digging in
All this winding up instead of winding down
All of this pretending, commendable spending
Plan ahead for days that won't come

Light and the darkness disappears, the world regains its dull veneer
Try but you can't forget the drums that drove you on when day was done

All alone, there you go, tumbling down in somersaults
Hide your footprints in the snow, tumble down and off you go
In time, the earth will share your load, this once you're better off alone

Part's not all and half's not whole and all's not more than one you know
All the wrongs you can't condone are not resolved
But lingering to swell and grow and fester
So you'll never know you could have had it all
But now you're on the prowl and what you need to set you free is my battering ram
