[Verse 1] From the high shelf, I am the motionless sphinx My blood screams to leap, instinct traces the line But I freeze before your wall of steel You are the forbidden flight... a scream trapped in space! [Chorus] I watch and ask, in my latent logic: The bars that save you from my teeth Are the same that slowly erase you They spare you from death... but deny you the now! [Verse 2] And then you sing, a sharp sudden trill I prick my ears, confused by the thrill Is it a war cry against being alone? Or just a mimic of a life you’ve never known? [Chorus] The bars that save you from my teeth Are the same that slowly erase you! They spare you from death... but deny you the now! DENY YOU THE NOW! [Outro] In the end, we are two reflections in this forgotten room. Me, circled by walls; you, by this woven doom. The only difference our fate implies... Is that I still dream of the hunt... And you only dream of life.
