with miles to drive

on a cerebral highway

where it leads our hearts to

that empire where all unfolds



we drag our knees

through these badlands

and we hurt ourselves

just to feel anything



in the mecca of us

we all glow forever



with cobwebbed eyes

an affair with the puppets

you've seemed to have forgotten

and now you sleep with the rats all alone



i held you so warm

like a brother

a part of you in a part of me so spoiled

i cut you off like a cancer



in the mecca of us

we all glow forever



its simple

how you complete my core

so potent in your eyes

to move mountains

to burn skies



we've broken

our arms and throats

for our portraits

demons or not

it doesn't make a difference to me

im so tired of screaming



in the mecca of us

we all glow forever
