lyrics

Dominique: Day 27. The rain has soaked us and our spirits are low. We've taken refuge inside of some caverns…
Kurt: So is it day 27?
Marjolein: No, but that's the least of our problems. We're in real trouble. I can't jump out of here so I’ve got to figure out some way to keep us alive.

Dominique:
As we cower in caverns
As the rain falls outside
As we shake and we shiver
And some of us cry

As the path fades to nothing
That we wandered upon
The light you glimpse
And you grasp for an instant is gone

As the clouds stain the skies
In a thick, ashen grey
And the sun and our spirits
We’ve not seen for days

As we huddle for comfort
And wait for the dogs
The light you glimpse
And you grasp for an instant is gone

And oh, here come the dogs
Oh, here come the dogs
And if you rest to catch your breath
You’d best be moving on
Cause oh, here come the dogs

...

Kurt: Dominique, do not move
Dominique: Oh my god. Oh my god
April: Don’t move
Dominique: Oh my god I’m gonna die.. I’m gonna die.... Ok... ok... It’s my time...
Kurt: Why aren’t they attacking?
Marjolein: Sarah’s showing off. It’s a flex. She’s milking the moment.
Kurt: So there’s nothing we can do?
Marjolein: Ok, hang on, I’m gonna try something. Hey! Hey, over here! Over here! Uh, uh ok wait... wait wait wait wait wait... shit... shit.... Ok, w… wait give me a second…

Your psycho toxic head trip gets under my skin
You poison every well and world in which you deign to live
I will survive you, will survive you will despise revile you
I will survive you till the day you drown alone

So sad I’d cry for you but die for you I won’t
I will survive your petty cruelties and your tired tropes
I will survive you, will survive you will despise revile you
I will survive you till the day you drown alone

I will survive you, will survive you, feel my spite inside you
I will survive you till the day you die alone

Paul Shapera Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Cama’s attempt to commune with higher beings failed; she only found Decadent Dottie. Together they roamed, indulging in dangerous forms of psycho-neural self-exploration which Cama hoped would present the key to her people’s further evolution. It only led to her destroying her people so that one of their pets could evolve. She sat in her former civilization's rubble and listened to Paul Shapera. ... more
