Sightless from Boredominion by Eden Glow

Fightless
I see a message in your eyes
Righteous (in a sense / innocence)
Least that’s how it’s justified

Prescient
I will not place my hopes on you
Incessant (echo)
As a stream would carve in_t(w)o

Fear’s a sign of faith
I wrench it from
A malleable space
Intent to come undone

Nascent
There is a womb beneath that hill
Complacent (chatter) as we are
May we pray the birth’s not still

Fear’s a sign of faith
I wrench it from between
A malleable space
Still unsha(p/k)en by belief

So show me forgiveness
For the smoke I’m set to spend

Fear’s no sign to stop
I stow what’s left between
A self-constructed box of straw
You might be content to lie beneath
And wait another day
Pump the sky and spin in place
You’re a forest fire
And the pines are yours to raze

So show me forgiveness
For the lie I might still live
And tell me the world will be just fine

Fear’s a sign of faith
Fear’s a sign of faith

Sightless
No recognition in your eyes
(sselemit) Timeless consecrations
Salt a ground once deified

And stain your lips
With a new round of spit

Rest, darling, on the rails
It’s no time to speak of failure
When it calls
We’re sure to know

Cold comfort in a seed
You know nothing of your needs
Yet pretend you’re more
In communion, blood aglow
Time will slow as you watch the stars

Carved out of the sky with drills
That spill collect(ive/ed) fire
Light the traps, lighten the air
With the smoke from forbearers’ pyres

And no atonement can be made for the land
On which blood has been shed
Voice a verse for peaceable parishioners
In a chapel with walls painted in lead
You strike more than yourself down

Will I
Fall alongside you
It’s nothing prophecy precludes

So turn, darling, on the tracks
It’s time to push the priors back
You’ve heard them call
Sightless intruders
Against the truth

Have faith
They’re here for you
