A Vessel for the Voices Lyrics

Engulfed in signals
meaningless to us
in a maze of arbitrary
symbols and signs
We find ourselves
snared between the lines
standing blindly
in the eye of the storm

With open chests for everyone to see
in a world of actors and mimes

They speak in riddles
as they peer into the world
through darkest slits
in masks of deceit
A dance in thorns
anxious not to hurt
deadly to the touch
and forever excluded from this
the greatest masquerade of all
Where a single gesture
can cast the weak into the abyss

Here we stand
a herd
shunned by the herd
and find you:
a vessel for our voices
as you find beauty in weakness
