Two by Sea - Dusk Lyrics

It's a breeding ground of lies
It's the essence driving pride
The black hole draining life from this world

Gold chains their necks to stone, trapped in blackened homes
Unworthy wealthy hands
Their hands are broken tools that build the house of fools from sand and dirt
And dust that fall to ash and rust
Their words are empty lies
A shallow thin disguise
They love only one side
Compassion long has died

Oh watch the clock
As five strikes diamonds paint the sky
And blue becomes the new black
Oh watch the clock
As six strikes diamonds rip the sky
Even our eyes now are black

Adorned in rings and jewels
Standing low, untamed beyond compare
Diamond studded and dead
A gaud swathed in silk and bled
The tomb lay full while the body roam
There's no light, no shining love
No glare of hope, no tranquil dove
And death will definitely dine with its descendants

Nothing excuses quite like the mind vacant of truth
Nothing confuses quite like the hollow heart of youth
