Idle Vice
Shadows seep inside of me
Creeping demise absorbing me
A wretched soul depriving me
Of oxygen reviving me

No evidence of life in me
A plaster cast of silly me
A cradle gentle cradles me
The time bomb groans inside of me

Shards of sound cascade around
Make hours fly by
Screech my lullaby
Shards of sound pound and pound
Rock me to sleep
Echo pain as I weep
Shards of sound cascade around
Make hours fly by
Screech my lullaby
Shards of sound pound and pound
Rock me to sleep
Echo pain as I weep

Still borne in the grief in me
God's angels conveying me
To Heaven with me
Then drop me and burn me

Shards of sound cascade around
Make hours fly by
Screech my lullaby
Shards of sound pound and pound
Rock me to sleep
Echo pain as I weep
Shards of sound cascade around
Make hours fly by
Screech my lullaby
Shards of sound pound and pound
Slay me in my sleep
