gobblers of dregs

Mastodon

Long and frayed
Static surrounds us
Break the free fall
Safely land
When man can climb to see
His rejection
Spirit'll burn
Evaporate

I left you in the wind
To pull the scraps together
I'm the one who sinned
There's more for me to weather

Complications
Of loss and gain
The grace he gave
Is filling the void
How to proceed
With new direction
As photographs
Melt away

I left you in the wind
To pull the scraps together
I'm the one who sinned
There's more for me to w?ather

Waiting
For the sun to rise
So I can
Say my last goodby?
All that I needed from you was your warm embrace
Turns out that was mine to give

Fools play into broken plans
Tuned straight from servants' hand
Reaping ill-gotten gains
Bleeding this love away

Coming home to rescue me
The fate of man resides in empathy
Seems my foundation is shaking and giving way
Look for my hand reaching up from this rubble and clay

It's too late
My heart's away
It's too late
Reborn again

I left you in the wind
To pull the scraps together
I'm the one who sinned
There's more for me to weather
