lyrics

this is the calm before the storm
we've been conditioned to conform
slowly the beast becomes awake
slowly foundations start to shake
this is the calm before the storm
let's turn this flock into a swarm
our time is now

nothing but wires stained with ash
cutting deep into our flesh
pushing forward nonetheless
we're preparing to transgress

from the depths of the pit comes a roar
it is calling for you
you can hide but your fate's irreversible

this is the calm before the storm
we've been conditioned to conform
slowly the beast becomes awake
slowly foundations start to shake
this is the calm before the storm
let's turn this flock into a swarm
our time is now

into waters we were thrust
the horrors underneath were yet unknown
though we escaped our mothers drowned with
longing grasps we can never go home

won't watch our bodies desiccate
and reach an apathetic state
once the final drop has dried
we'll stand completely petrified

in the face of fatigue and despair
corruption prevails
it is scaling the walls as the goddess weeps

its maw tears chunks of bloody meat
and leaves the remnants at our feet
our ambitions ever pure
produced an agonizing cure
what in the world have we done?
our wings too close to the sun
we are burning up

into waters we were thrust
the horrors underneath were yet unknown
though we escaped our mothers drowned with
longing grasps we can never go home
