lyrics

This place is electric
It screams the ends in light
Static and fluid
Cold heat lashes your sight
Light up the night lines
Defining all lit sparks
Electric memories are crawling in from the past

They’ll bind you if they don't first light you right up
And though before you'd try to slip by
Now there’s no more hiding

Because I hear all the cries
There's a howling that'll tear right through your night tonight

Calling
Passing the cut aways
Smiling
Grinning at gone mistakes
Burning
Feeding a flame with a fire
Breathing
Drowning in all lost days
Gasping
Coveting words misspent
Howling
A ghost of a life just slipped by

This place is frenetic
Just feel the heat discharge
The lights all vibrating
Try stop and set your heart
You knew it was coming
Still chose to find the dark
A cold shadows reaching up and taking a grasp

All saying we all tried turning you round
And though before you've tried to slip by
Now there’s no more hiding

Now we hear all your cries
We’re a howling; we'll tear right through your life tonight

Calling
Passing the cut aways
Smiling
Grinning at gone mistakes
Burning
Feeding a flame with a fire
Breathing
Drowning in all lost days
Gasping
Coveting words misspent
Howling
A ghost of a life just slipped by
Calling, calling, howling

We'll tear right through you tonight
Tear right through
You want us to
We'll tear you through alright
