Wing Magma - Memory Holes Lyrics

The thought alone keeps me up at night
Can't find my feet, raise my fists to fight
Jaws of the beast still wet and pink
Your skin and bones won't make it back home
Tooth for a tooth, eye for an eye
Cut off the head and the body will die
Now you're even less than nothing at all
You never were

Drums are swelling in and out of time
Biting deeper than a blunt incisor
Watching torches gather in a line
In the night, fighting in the dark
Now they're running right before my very eyes

The thought puts spiders in my head
Crawling up behind my eyes, in my fingers and my legs
You said the tigers were all toothless and tame
Why are you so scared of the dark?
Shouldn't you be more afraid of the biting and the bark?
You said the lions were all legless and lame

I'm bursting through with a marching band
Got your head in my arms and your teeth in my hand
I've been keeping this quiet for years and years
I never knew, I never did
I've thought it through, I've figured it out
I've been eye deep in fear and doubt
I'll file it here, in a memory hole
It never was
