[Verse 1]

My anguish told you

A persistent lie

The parasitic circuits that you push by wheel

Were spoken to me every time

[Chorus]

And like a charlatan

You counterfeit the vessels through flesh and time

These pacts we keep in secret

Drinkin' from a well that was cured by drought

[Verse 2]

My torment adores you

Oh, when my strings are tied

Out of compulsion I must decimate

The sapless embryonic miles

[Chorus]

And like a charlatan

You counterfeit the vessels through flesh and time

These pacts we keep in secret

Drinkin' from a well that was cured by drought

[Bridge]

My knives are burrowed voices

Glistened by the handles so they won't let go

These limbs are idle creatures

Extensions of a spirit that is not controlled

My heart is trapped inside

And I refuse to accept this throne

Oh-oh-oh-oh

[Verse 3]

My night's unfoldin'

Reads like a page of test results

This sterile codex

Is missin' all my last resolve

[Chorus]

And like a charlatan

You counterfeit the vessels through flesh and time

These pacts we keep in secret

Drinkin' from a well that was cured by drought

And like a charlatan

You counterfeit the vessels through flesh and time

These pacts we keep in secret

Drinkin' from a well that was cured by drought
