Lyrics
(Instrumental)
(Verse 1)
Dragging up drudgery, drilling through the soil
Calcified, sanctified: spoiling and toiling
Digging through mounds of earth, clay, mud-
A breath, a spark of ignition, cognition buried-
(Pre-Chorus)
Beneath the specks of soot, there lies a truth
A growth, a spurt, a fickle tickle, a hearth
Whose fire burns bright, cascading limelight
Centering my self, my health, my mind anew
(Instrumental)
(Chorus)
Dum, de dum, de dum, de dum dum, de dum
Dum, de dum, de dum, de dum dum, de dum
Beneath the earth their lies a fiend, a creep,
A vile bile of venomous snakes, awake again-
(Post-Chorus)
Dum, de dum, de dum, de dum dum, de dum
Dum, de dum, de dum, de dum dum, de dum
(Instrumental)
(Verse 2)
Grumbling gorgons, whose hearts hunger for us
Their thirst, their wish, their lips, their kiss-
A fool's new fright, a delight, a respite and fight
To relent and release my gaze from their snare
(Pre-Chorus)
Beneath the ground, the dirt, the growing souls
A growth, a spurt, a fickle tickle, a hearth
Whose fire burns bright, cascading twilight
Centering my self, my health, my mind retooled
(Instrumental)
(Chorus)
Dum, de dum, de dum, de dum dum, de dum
Dum, de dum, de dum, de dum dum, de dum
Beneath the earth their lies a fiend, a creep,
A vile bile of venomous snakes, awake again-
(Post-Chorus)
Dum, de dum, de dum, de dum dum, de dum
Dum, de dum, de dum, de dum dum, de dum
(Instrumental)
(Bridge)
Despite this, despite this silly withering wile
I feed the wild, I fight the fear, of being reviled
Despised, harmed and maligned, hated-
With bated breath I hold my hands close-
(Chorus)
Dum, de dum, de dum, de dum dum, de dum
Dum, de dum, de dum, de dum dum, de dum
Beneath the earth their lies a fiend, a creep,
A vile bile of venomous snakes, awake again-
(Post-Chorus)
Dum, de dum, de dum, de dum dum, de dum
Dum, de dum, de dum, de dum dum, de dum
(Instrumental)
(Instrumental)
(Chorus)
Dum, de dum, de dum, de dum dum, de dum
Dum, de dum, de dum, de dum dum, de dum
Beneath the earth their lies a fiend, a creep,
A vile bile of venomous snakes, awake again-
(Post-Chorus)
Dum, de dum, de dum, de dum dum, de dum
Dum, de dum, de dum, de dum dum, de dum
(Chorus)
Dum, de dum, de dum, de dum dum, de dum
Dum, de dum, de dum, de dum dum, de dum
Beneath the earth their lies a fiend, a creep,
A vile bile of venomous snakes, awake again-
(Instrumental)
