“If We Rose”

We live in our way

under the ground in dirt

No ears to hear sound,

no nerves for hurt

We’ve no anxieties to test

We are unquiet in our rest.


If we rose, we would be unstoppable

Your little bubble of world is poppable

We could end everything you’ve ever known for you

But we don’t give a flying bone for you.


Because we dance forever, we the sleepless dead.

Because we dance forever, we the sleepless dead.


If we rose, we would be unstoppable

Your little glass world is droppable

We could end everything you’ve ever known for you

But we don’t give a hunk of stone for you.


Because we dance forever, we the sleepless dead.

Because we dance forever, we the sleepless dead.


In movies, we sometimes bring apocalypse

And truly, yes, the world is at our fingertips

But the world hold neither charm nor attraction.

We partake in neither harm nor inaction.


If we rose, we would be unstopping

Your lifespans are rapidly dropping

We could end everything you’ve ever wanted, friend

We’d make you wish you were only haunted, friend.


Because we dance forever, we the sleepless dead.

Because we dance forever, we the sleepless dead.


Fear us, fear us, fear us well you should

You are near us, near us, near us and that is not good.

But we’ve walked the mortal land, and it is Hollow.

The tomb’s a Royal Court. We other pleasures follow.


If we rose, we would be unstoppable

Your little bubble of world is poppable

We could end everything you’ve ever known for you

But we don’t give a flying bone for you.


Because we dance forever, we the sleepless dead.

Because we dance forever, we the sleepless dead.
