Lyrics

Drop

Feeding the engines

Feeding the engines

Verse 1

Internal governments falling down

Every single thought arrives barefoot and covered in ash

Thermal pressure cracks the crown

Ancient tectonic drift grinding through my cooling chest

Pre-Chorus

Machines pray under the talk

Mutilated words start to walk

Machines pray under the talk

It's just the walk

Chorus

Language eats itself tonight

Tired of the conversation

Tired of the translation

Tired of the litigation

It eats itself tonight

I am complicit with the tempest

Breathing in the ruin

Drop

Feeding the engines

Feeding the engines

Verse 2

Rage in the margins of my sleep

A private jurisprudence of teeth and impulse inside

Wolves take the reason they keep

Whole moral systems disappearing down the black tide

Pre-Chorus

Machines pray under the talk

Mutilated words start to walk

Machines pray under the talk

It's just the walk

Chorus

Language eats itself tonight

Tired of the conversation

Tired of the translation

Tired of the litigation

It eats itself tonight

I am complicit with the tempest

Breathing in the ruin

Bridge

Words are an invasion

Sentence like a star

Words are an invasion

Density from afar

The courtroom of the nerves

Hanging from the rafters

Mercy upside down

Chorus

Language eats itself tonight

Tired of the conversation

Tired of the translation

Tired of the litigation

It eats itself tonight

I am complicit with the tempest

Breathing in the ruin

Drop

Feeding the engines

Feeding the engines
