Antithesis by Atlas At Last Lyrics

You carved our niche into the rock of a mountainside
And regaled us the lore of the natural world
From boulders etched by the tide
You learned to rework the Earth
“You pour yourself over like you revel in drowning
And I am but a vessel, trying.”
Where it bore into you and remains
Heartlessly mimicking my mouth agape
I considered that you were of a similar material:
You striated just the same
But where it bore into you and remains…
Recall nothing more than the taste of the wind
Sweetness from the honeysuckle bloom
A dissertation you still have a heart for
But the deeper the cuts, the deeper the cure
