about

Lose Sight is inspired the classic Italian Horror film from Lucio Fulci, The Beyond. The song is written from the perspective of Dr. John McCabe.

lyrics

I don't want to rest in peace tonight
I don't want to walk into that light
They feast on my flesh until my eyes turn white
and lose sight
Foamy at the mouth with an appetite
Spent the afterlife trying to wrong my rights
At the gates of hell but I cannot fight
I lose sight

I was not concerned with the things you were telling me
'Twas a peddler's melody because you weren't digging the energy
Airing grievances in need of self help
Pockets padded by demons living under your hotel
these notes fell
Prophecies of a blind girl
A nice world was all I saw then
Warning signs scored the ceremony in darkness
Like dark hearts that spark marks on paintings
entertaining the cards that you're left with
Renovating this sorry confession
Inheritance, blessed? I'm fully aware of this heart inside my chest
In stubbornness I was skeptical of all the signs and wonders
The bottom feeders rise as spiders consume the face and eyes

I don't want to rest in peace tonight
I don't want to walk into that light
They feast on my flesh until my eyes turn white
and lose sight
Foamy at the mouth with an appetite
Spent the afterlife trying to wrong my rights
At the gates of hell but I cannot fight
I lose sight

I wasn't born to be part of this prophecy
Walking though the fog of lost humanity
My fate is adjacent to yours
Every since you came from New York
State of the morgue
It's like a smorgasbord of corpses regenerated
Like it or not the combative to shatter isolation
They were once my patients but I failed them
So it's back to my practice
We're either hallucinating or out of it
I was never keene to malice or acts of savage in passing
So if the karma was passed on it wasn't meant for me
The superstition never fit my aesthetic needs
to compute this dark truth I was clueless
My brain loads slow like old computers
I'm useless infused with the logic of losers
Condemned to the gates this is our future
We give and take for the things we can't pursue
Echo chambers of the praises we knew
The light is deadly but it soothes

I don't want to rest in peace tonight
I don't want to walk into that light
They feast on my flesh until my eyes turn white
and lose sight
Foamy at the mouth with an appetite
Spent the afterlife trying to wrong my rights
At the gates of hell but I cannot fight
I lose sight
