IQ (EN)
A Missile
Hardest nails, impaled and wartorn
Water vapours trailing
Bloodshot down, I am drowning
Born of ion failings and fear

There is no fear
Can be sustained
No original sin
To blame

Breaking back, unreactive
Shaking back my perspective
Solid state, armour plated
Deadly unattractive to all

But you hunted me down
Again
Man, you ran me aground
Right then

Now I know
Whatever lay beneath your skin
Was all that pulled me in

Weighted scales created fiction
Empty revolution
Essential trial, day of all days
Silent retribution begins
No expression
That sell contains
No ulterior gain
Remains

Now I know
Anything hidden in your skin
Enough to pull me in

When I leave that sunrise
Without a missile
Someone flawless moves in
With every potential
What I thought could save me was artificial
Raking across my nerves and taking possession
Cutting a chainsaw swathe
Through all defenses still in place

Because it's crazy and nothing existed
It all escapes me
I'm not even making a promise

There is no faith
Can be sustained
No original sin
To blame
Now I know
Whatever lay beneath your skin
Was all that pulled me in

When I find that I've carved out another profile
I will leave that sunrise without a missile
