Chimera Lyrics

Shield your

Shield your eyes

In blindfolds

What's left behind?

Your old ways

Will never die

You caught me by surprise

You were always there

I went out in plumes

Must have been the glare

Eclipsing me in you

Branching thru my lungs

Swell until I cave

That which made you young

(Never remained)

Your mouth is like fireworks

Waxing hot and pouring forth

I know your mind is pinioned by

Chains of reason

You made it back by the skin of your teeth

Just to leave

Nothing takes your place

Sympathetic in a way you would assume

Tether slipped from space

Calculated in the rhythm of your namesake

You kept changing shape

Antithetic of the person that I knew

My world stays the same

I'm indulging in the weaponry we used

Get back

Draw your blade

I have waited so long just to be phased

Plead your case in the

Heart of the fire

You can be saved

But I wish you would've told me first

The second time for what it's worth

I know your mind is pinioned by

Chains of reason

You made it back by the skin of your teeth

Just to leave

Nothing takes your place

Sympathetic in a way you would assume

Tether slipped from space

Calculated in the rhythm of your namesake

You kept changing shape

Antithetic of the person that I knew

My world stays the same

I'm indulging in the weaponry we used

But I'm not saying it's alright

Every single misstep is magnified
