Stolas – Fair Chase lyrics

It wouldn’t leave me like it left them
Wait by the river
I'll bring her tethered
I want you to survive

Bone crushing bone, the roots exposed
Hot on the season
Sweat off this fever
I want you to survive

She said, “The Earth will provide
As long as you feel its grasp
Nothing is had with promise of more.”

Let's do it before she asks
Because the question won't be in words

Well then, let's tie her up, make this quick
Here, grab hold and I will fix the stitch

I kept stabbing at your chest
Like diving in water
Your ribcage denied me
But I would dig harder

I remember every word
Stumbling out of that mouth
I had to witness the last fumes
The last fumes that your lungs soak up

If we let you loose what would you do with your hands?
We tied you up because if you had the chance
You’d slaughter everyone of us
Would you let us live?

I remember every word
Stumbling out of that mouth
I had to witness the last fumes

I remember every word
Stumbling out of that mouth
I had to witness the last fumes that your lungs soak up

Winding down the cosmic clock
We wither when we grow up

Winding down the cosmic clock
We start to bloom just before we rot

Winding down the cosmic clock
We wither when we grow up

Dream within a dream
When it ends, we turn to dust
When we rest, the world that we seek
Is within you and me
It’s held like a thought
And we traveled this far

Don’t let it go to waste
Find a way to leave this place
