Mine All Mine

Go give 'em all your counting stones
And the mask that you carved out of ash and bone
You know that in the keyhole is the only truth
And it is - just not the one you're looking through

Now raise your silver cup of locust wine
To praise the burning world you left behind
But I will count the fading stars tonight
Through clouds of hydrogen cyanide
And I'll know the aching lungs I feel are mine
All mine

Behold the golden age menagerie
But ignore all of its depravity
I'm sure the horrors they perform for you
They'd do 'em even if you didn't force 'em to

But I'll chew a few blades of grass tonight
To taste the dying miracle of light
And I'll know the bitter taste I taste is mine
All mine

Oh tell me 'bout that dream of yours
Of the sharks swimming in the rolling shore
That you could see only when the waves would bend
And oh won't you love me like you did back then

I'll try to hold you in my mind tonight
And I'll try to keep my eyes open wide
Cause I know whatever's coming now is mine
All mine
