Track Insight / Lyrics
Gothic moth, keep watch tonight
Beneath the cities' aching lights
Your silken wings, like whispers cold
Guard the roofs of tales untold
From Notre-Dame to Arc de Triomphe high
Concrete shadows reel by, dark and dry
Your hollow eyes, twin lanterns bright
Leaning monoliths pierce the night
[Pre-
Gothic moth, dark bird of prey
Unwavering gaze, consume the fray
Courage came with cold pale wings
Take flight, comic release springs
Rebel moths rise from/ gravity's hold
Unfurl their darkness/ on city gold
Haunted hearts, scarred faces/ shattered and worn
Gothic moths rise from/ the endless dawn
Mourning for the ghosts/ that cannot roam
Echoes fade 'neath/ cobblestone
Yet your black form/ on whispers roam
Bruised pagan gods/ in shadows thrown
[Pre-
Gothic moth, dark bird of prey
Unwavering gaze, consume the fray
Courage came with cold pale wings
Take flight, comic release springs
Rebel moths rise from/ gravity's hold
Unfurl their darkness/ on city gold
Haunted hearts, scarred faces/ shattered and worn
Gothic moths rise from/ the endless dawn
Riff assault, double-time drums
Unhinge the cage the night has come
Let the bastards choke on spite and pain
Crush the pomp, the artifice vain
Screeching high notes pierce the night
Eroded melody, sublime sight
Khronos' clockwork, the universe machine
Unleashed, a sonic plague unseen
Rise, you rebels! Ghosts and shadows dwindle
Gothic moths rise from/ the ashes' underside
Haunted hearts, scarred faces/ shattered and worn
Unlatch the chains, rites fulfilled
Gothic moth, keep watch tonight
Beneath the cities' sore lights
Your silken wings, like whispers cold
Guard the roofs as secrets unfold
