We Are Debt Lyrics - Monuments - This Or The Apocalypse

I clipped off my claws, in defense of my weary eyes. 

And I have been one acquainted with the night. 

This is the last pinnacle left to face, 

An indefinite statement of time. 

I have been one acquainted with the night. 

Dark ends darkness; man ends mankind. 

No, there is no dawn. 

This silent rock is turning black, 

Opaque from the ceaseless. 

Our final cause is yours. 

The traveled street is a vein of blood, 

And we will rest amongst its whisper. 

Our sleep amongst the dirt and grey. 

Our sleep amongst the earthly day. 

Life is a broken glass; drink from the shards. 

Forgive us of our blasphemies, 

In passing time our souls will stand ajar. 

Wider than the sky, that is what we are. 

Time is surely a loaded gun - 

For it has the power to kill, 

Without the power to die. 

I have been one acquainted with the night, 

Opaque from the ceaseless.
