Impulse x
In a prism of unbreakable texture
We are sliding with incredible speed
With a fear that thousands captures,
To form its human shield
In the moment the past is forgotten
Remembrance is lost in a haze
And the haunted in time will grant us
With the smell of their shallow graves
Death takes in with the tight embrace
Swiftly shatters everyone’s future
Def will never hear us pray
And history won’t fix the rapture
In a prism of unbreakable texture
We’ll be sliding with incredible speed
Where the only ones who’ll be near
Are demons we tried to kill
