Coheed and Cambria | Lyrics | Delirium Trigger

We're now up here alone, terror on the intercom, can someone save us?
Systems malfunction, blast it, this damn machine, over and out captain
Something lurks, creeps on the counter top, somewhere behind you
Parasitic cysts, I can't stand to watch, it's coming up and out of your chest

Remember when we were young
I sit up right on the table
A photograph of earth feeding me a way back
Frightened I tear alone or maybe not the the only one there

Hello, hello? When it rings will you answer?
There corner tall short stance, it's you, come on, kill me

You made a good friend to me but while you were outnumbered
And torn [Incomprehensible], I don't feel alive

When you're cut short for misery, will you pray it be the end?
Give a look, surprise, wide eyed to me then you'll know just how I am
The scare that triggers your fear
Come know me in a different light, now come know me as God

You made a good friend to me but while you were outnumbered
And torn they made us do things to you, I know

Run sand hourglass, in my time, will I be worth?
Spin 'round carousel when your horse isn't screwed in, isn't screwed in

Oh dear God, I don't feel alive when you're cut short for misery
(Raise forth lost cause)
Will you pray it be the end? Give a look surprise wide eyed to me
(Raise forth)
Then you'll know just how I am
(Subtle demise, the legitimate cry)
The scare that triggers your fear, come know me in a different light now
Come know me as God
(Raise forth lost cause)
