Underground (Cave Canem Demo) Aurelio Voltaire

(Logic and reason walk hand in hand with aphasia
Bound and gagged she leads them astray through a forest
Until they come to a place of utter silence
And they laugh... and I laugh.)

Six feet of earth above my head
Keeps me safe from what she said
Six walls of wood to keep them out
The smart remarks, the screams the shouts
They scream, they shout
Theres only one way to drown them out
I hear your voice I hit the ground
You looked for me but I'm not around
There's a small cafe where I wrote it down
I looked for you, you were not around
You're the burning light that killed my child
He's gone underground
I've gone underground
I've gone underground
I've gone underground

Some come to pay their last respects
Or beckon me to come around
They leave dried flowers in the air
Or place their feelings on the doorstep
At best they try to understand
And offer plans, most futile plans
Here in this darkness I can see
Your skin's the closest thing to grace
It dance like ghosts upon my fingers
And feelings fly, they're still aliveThere's only one way to drown them out
