Diamond in the Witch House - Mastodon

Wide is the line

separates the rivers from the dirt

all the while I wonder who’s the one

Within the one and only eye

we all stood cut free

self-blinded to see through the veil

Can you see there’s a child

standing idle by us in this mess

who am I to cause this emptiness

Willing the sea to cleanse my soul

of all that I’ve been

to bring me free to this clarity

Trouble rolls in

as the tides, they twist and make the turn

pain subsides

and sweeps across the earth again

Willing the sea to cleanse my soul

of all that I’ve been

to bring me free to this clarity

Within the one and only eye

we all stood cut free

self-blinded to see through the veil

I’m standing deep in these waters

bleeding free and bent

to drag us onto the new visions

only loss fills my void

Only the void connects me

with these mountains

of dust, blood and soil

the stones born in the flames of truth

demand a sacrifice

Don’t just bleed us and leave us to ourselves

we will return so deeply harmed

and we will shatter you
