“Panophobia” lyrics
The Agonist Lyrics
“Panophobia”
Keep out the intruders
Put the drawbridge up
The enemy has ransacked
What we had just rebuilt
Now the garden lies
In serene symmetry and severe color theory
Roots slowly poisoning
Through strategic seeds planted inside
We’re much safer self-preserved
Let the Dead Sea rise
No, the watchdogs aren’t robots
They can’t defend against their lures
Doors that weld shut behind you
And books that fly like birds
Crushed by backpacks filled with ammo
Luggage carts distract the defense
And the troops sneak in undetected
Charades begin, start the pretense
Obsessive thought in royal chambers
Invites Trojan warriors in
Little exceptions seem so harmless
Little victories, little wins
And now why has the plan failed?
We sit here aimless once again
With all units deployed fully
How is it we let him in?
All the corporals agreed:
Zero-tolerance enforced
But as cold as doorknobs were
I somehow still opened the doors
Each battle lost is a mile gained in this terminal timeline
We all fear the last few inches but they’re so far out, we’re blind
Each battle lost
A dysfunctional team, we are
No one following the rules
Yes I’ll do my best to protect you
But your disobedience intrudes
Skeletons escape the flesh
Like ants through tightly clenched fists
This time impeach the tyrant
What a contradictory statement
Suicidal self-preservationist
Although logic understands
Prison chambers still exist
Chambers east and west conspiring
Neighbors north and south unite
With the four working against me
I’m powerless and losing sight
Each battle lost is a mile gained on this terminal timeline
We all fear the last few inches but they’re so far out, we’re blind
This is a forced entry
This is the algometry
This is panophobic
Immunity gets sick
This is a forced entry
This is the algometry
This is panophobic
Taken down, brick by brick
This is a forced entry
This is the algometry
This is panophobic
This is the last conflict
Each battle lost
Each battle lost
