Lyrics:

shrinking under the ancient mass
the deafening roar of millennia past
swept away
swept away to be pulled down again
time after time
the memory won't last
drift away
to drift is to settle
ease into the slumber
what never mattered never was
there's nothing to remember
show your face in the light of day

to go off the deep end
yet not leave a ripple at all
the further you swim
the deeper you fall
slipping away into the seaweed maze
leaving the surface forever so calm

devoid of meaning
the chasm runs deep
pull away
away from light
from tomorrow
those barren days ahead
sink beneath
the sobering hum of the pressure building
showering your skin with needles
wearing away the shades of red

to cascade down clad in the finest silk
the string has snapped
the pearls gone along their gleam
go
resonate with the oldest of notes
igniting your skin
bombarding your bones

waves envelop this bed you sleep in
dreamlessly
like a stone in the deep
warmth escaping your body
your eyes no longer see
make way for the storm and let it take you under
inside your cocoon woven in secret
no silence left to keep
