White Whale

from Rorschach by Havok

/

lyrics

Restlessness keeping me awake
An ache to deliver, to prevail
While Infinity slithers like a snake
Breathe out, inhale

Try Escaping the void
To never be forgotten
I will fade like a bad Polaroid
Discarded, cursed and rotten

My white whale is my legend
The one I chase to the edge
The one I never reach
The grey man on the ledge.

So I turn to the stars
Thinking we’re all stellar trash
We burn hot and die fast
Residue of cosmic ash

At that fathomless depth
Where everything is black
I catch a glimmer
And a gleam glances back

As it is said
if you stare into the abyss
invite the demons to your bed
it's a strange kind of bliss

what will remain
when my body is dust
everything and nothing is in vain
I'll shed my human crust

My legend will fade
But so will all
As my time comes to a halt
Nothing is unmade

At that fathomless depth
Where everything is black
I catch a glimmer
And a gleam glances back

As it is said
if you stare into the abyss
invite the demons to your bed
it's a strange kind of bliss

what will remain
when my body is dust
everything and nothing is in vain
I'll shed my human crust

My legend will fade
But so will all
As my time comes to a halt
Nothing is unmade

Oh White whale
Return to me again
Diamond skin so pale
Come relieve my pain

Oh white whale
satisfy my cruel needs
The river in my barren vale
In my soil plant your seeds

Restlessness keeping me awake
An ache to deliver, to prevail
While Infinity slithers like a snake
Breathe out, inhale

Try Escaping the void
To never be forgotten
I will fade like a bad Polaroid
Discarded, cursed and rotten

Oh White whale
Return to me again
Your diamond skin so pale
Come relieve my pain

Oh white whale
satisfy my cruel needs
Be the river in my barren vale
In my soil plant your seeds
