Awake At The Deep End Lyrics

A cascade of calamities

A pattern that upsets the threshold

There are no layers of punishment

Hell is here, hell is now

The whip that cracks for one cracks for all

The whip that cracks for one cracks for all

Amidst the oceans of contradictions

There is only one constant

The approaching gallop of the pale horse

And all the misery He brings

The whip that cracks for one cracks for all

The whip that cracks for one cracks for all

Behold the gaze of the beast

As venomous as it's insipid

Pathetic locus of control

Impotent, emaciated

No fire and brimstone

No divine threat

Has ever kept one

From the clutches of sin

The whip that cracks for one cracks for all

The whip that cracks for one cracks for all

What sheep fear the most

Is to be cast out of the herd

Not the wolf, not man, not death

Only to walk one's own path

Embody Persephone

And accept the calling of death

And when the time comes

To bless the frigid fields

Refuse

Deny them your gifts

Awake at the deep end

Awake at the deep end

Awake at the deep end
