Progeny

from Expire by Expire

lyrics

mark your stars, pinpricks of light
reach this way and set yourself free to die

make a weakling form in my eyes
the seventh day, a progenic paradigm
the sacred source of my pride
the child stops short of all I had inside

you still have fins
crawling from the sea of my sin
despite the spawn
all upon the scars of your dawn

start conceived. time will come, slain by the end
stillborn dream I had
to hang, climb the chain, life in suspense
realize eternal visions right before my eyes

take a single breath on your own
the second coughs from the sight of all I know
the sinking sons seem alive
somatic twin, newborn life will surely die

you still have fins
crawling from the sea of my sin
despite the spawn
all upon the scars of your dawn

you'll see, oh will you see when every newborn nature comes of age
new seed, do a good deed, children drowning in the sea again
using, oh you're losing all the life you ever gained from me
truly, when will you see? when you raise yourself, you will fall away
