Into dust

from Overvalued Ideas by Shaking Chains

/

lyrics

Scatter gunning barefoot
Into a fountain of ignored wishes
Frozen by the sudden dawn
Staring at the sky in disaffection
Paralysed we drown in our reflection

Read unto your children and when they are sleeping
Load the gun with your goodbyes
Eager to demand your full attention
Flash bulb eyes don't recognise deception

To rise and fall like the splintered wheel
Collapsing as it turns another civilisation into dust
Into dust

Advertised – underneath the static
Everlasting life assured
Alibis, false idols and fanatics
You can hear them scratching at your door
Can you hear them scratching at your door?

Expanding like delirium
Inside of the confession
When you can no longer hold it in
We all agree to disagree objecting
In silent cries we rise from genuflecting

To rise and fall like the splintered wheel
Collapsing as it turns another civilisation into dust
Into dust

Debut Album ‘Overvalued Ideas’ out 29th Jan 2021.

”The overvalued idea, first described by Wernicke, refers to a solitary, abnormal belief that is neither delusional nor obsessional in nature, but which is preoccupying to the extent of dominating the sufferer's life.”
