The Dubious Glow Of Excess Lyrics





Here we stand arm in arm

at the corridors of time and reason

with jaws set

Our collective gaze unflinching

Under the eyes of gods, men, martyrs and saints

And what if all your hopes and dreams came true

tomorrow

would you lie

Basking in the dubious glow of excess

Forsaking all other



Life alone with a broken promise

These thoughts wont pray away

Stand still stone cold and empty

Begging grace to favor this soul

One more day



Im struck blind

With it all

Ive never been the kind to say im sorry

Its strange

To hear the dead keep calling



How many restless days and nights will pass

As the salience of all your broken reveries

Hammers upon your consciousness

and will tomorrow bring anything

save the vacant reproach

of your pensive ministrations

Run out the pain of indifference and avarice

All the small towns and cigarettes

Ive seen much more than I wished for

Watched our surface calling in all his debts



So once again we stand staring into the sable horizon

our jaws set

Collective gaze unflinching

Under the eyes of gods, men, martyrs and saints
