Rhythms of Æsir

(Verse 1) Breathing in the dark, lying on its side The ruins of the day painted with a scar And the more I straighten out, the less it wants to try The feelings start to rot one wink at a time (Chorus) Oh-oh Forgiving who you are for what you stand to gain Just know that if you hide, it doesn't go away When you get out of bed, don't end up stranded Horrified with each stone On the stage, my little dark age (Verse 2) Picking through the cards, knowing what's nearby The carvings on the fetish say they find it hard And the engine's failed again, all limits of disguise The humor's not the same, coming from denial (Chorus) Oh-oh I grieve in stereo, the stereo sounds strange I know that if you hide, it doesn't go away If you get out of bed and find me standing All alone, open-eyed Burn the page, my little dark age [Bridge] Little dark age, little dark age Little dark age, little dark age [Chorus 3] I grieve in stereo, the stereo sounds strange You know that if it hides, it doesn't go away If I get out of bed, you'll see me standing All alone, horrified On the stage, my little dark age (Violin solo, jazzy and uplifting) [Verse 3] Giddy with delight, seeing what's to come The image of the dead, dead ends in my mind [Chorus 4] Policemen swear to God, love's seeping from the guns I know my friends and I would probably turn and run If you get out of bed, come find us heading For the bridge, bring a stone All the rage, my little dark age [Chorus 2] I grieve in stereo, the stereo sounds strange I know that if you hide, it doesn't go away If you get out of bed and find me standing All alone, open-eyed Burn the page, my little dark age [Outro] All alone, open-eyed Burn the page, my little dark age
