Mercy On Apollo - Sinew

As the shadows grow

We dive into

The tide of yesterday

When the colours bloom

To bleed away

We hide inside the frames

In resistance of understanding

Today we die

While the story of us is written on

We’re reading ancient tales

And the more you think to know 'bout me

The more I disappear

Acting for the perfect picture

Go ahead and shoot

I’m already dead

Follow the traces that lead to nowhere

Away from the dirt

Away from here

(From you)

Chasing the image of Paradise Bay

Come close to the dream

And lose reality

With me

With every name you give me

I illuminate

And slowly turn to air

And any time I try

To hold you tight

You slip away like sand

Applauding the sleeping audience

Hurray we’re gone

Follow the traces that lead to nowhere

Away from the dirt

Away from here

(From you)

Chasing the image of Paradise Bay

Come close to the dream

And lose reality

With me

The Hollywood stars

And Broadway queens

The jackpot hits

In heroin dreams

The vast ideas

Of genius minds

The who is who

Of Olympus' tribe

I wrap my head in crimson skies

We drink champagne to the grace of mine

You suit me well I suit you fine

Let’s fuse to a sun in a meltdown hellfire
