Cognizance – Strychnine Shift lyrics

[Intro]
Ghostly procession emerging from the morning mist
Confined impregnable delusion

[Verse 1]
Glued to this dungeon of thought
This involuntary isolation
Nothing is quite as it seems
The great digital congregation

[Chorus 1]
Watch the precious sands of time flee from our ignorance
Days reduced to captured moments
Scrolled away in the blink of an eye
A myriad of colour stands inferior
Against a falsified world rendered in their hands

[Chorus 2]
Slaved muscles struggle to service this repetitive action
Sinewy appendages claw insidious voids
Flexors are constricted with our minds
Awareness is the key to breakthrough
Transcending the dull ache from within

[Chorus 1]
Watch as the precious sands of time flee from our ignorance
The poison with a limited purpose
The embodiment of obsession
A dominant distraction from the world before me
True sign of the times
Cradling entanglement
Lenses of the ego baring all
To those sifting through the echo chamber

[Verse 2]
A thirst engraved into our notions
Leaving time honoured attitudes forgotten
A sign of ever changing paradigms
The shift in coexistence
Bleak glimpse of life wasting away

[Bridge]
Here I am drinking from the same trough
Here to savour familiar taste of dirt
Thriving from relationships forged from code
Here I am drinking from the same trough
Here to savour familiar taste of dirt
Thriving from relationships forged from code

[Chorus 2]
Slaved muscles struggle to service this repetitive action
Sinewy appendages claw insidious voids
Flexors are constricted with our minds
Awareness is the key to breakthrough
Transcending the dull ache from within
Slaved muscles struggle to service this repetitive action
Sinewy appendages claw insidious voids
Flexors are constricted with our minds
Awareness is the key to breakthrough
Transcending the dull ache from within
