moving day lyrics: zac lasher

Some have said
The secrets of the world can’t be told
Some have said
That passing will cause a map to unfold
I can’t claim
To know the things that time won’t reveal
Yet I still clam to know

Electric city races through itself
Liquid buildings multiply and sparkle as they melt
The weary travelers are rescued in a flash
Landing on forgotten corners
But the worst had yet to pass

Circumstances change so fast
The city skyline fades into madness
The present will become the past
Everything we’re sure of drips away

Moving day
Devoid of time
Diagonal through the tenth dimension
Held across the borderline
I’ll stay

Recklessly
I trespass on grounds justifiably banned
Solemnly
I question my fate
Am I blessed?
Am I damned?
I will find
The answers are hidden past all I can see
I will find
That all I perceive was created for me

The bare winter branches leave a fractal in their wake
So it appears the devil offered me much more than I could take
Why did I shake his hand when I’d already won?

Wish that I could take it back
The sacrifice is more than the beauty
The pain from this escape will last
And everything I’ve worked for drips away
