The Dirt (Alpha) Lyrics

How long does it take to grow a new head
And watch the old husk wither and fall?
I am molting and leaving the powerless shell
A great becoming offers me her allWhen I rise, I crush you beneath my feet
Disappearing, vanishing into meI watch the world become a speck
As I ascend on high
And leaving me is everything that crawls
Beneath a yawning sky
I will hatch out of this egg and never wonder whyWhen I rise, I crush you beneath my feet
Disappearing, vanishing into me
When I rise, I crush you beneath my feet
Disappearing, vanishing into meAll that you ever were was never anything
Some of us will hatch and grow
Some are not worth rememberingAll that you ever were was never anything
Some of us will hatch and grow
Some are not worth rememberingWhen I rise I crush you beneath my feet
Disappearing, vanishing into me
When I rise I crush you beneath my feet

Disappearing, vanishing into meWhen I rise I crush you beneath my feet
Disappearing, vanishing into me
When I rise I crush you beneath my feet
Disappearing, vanishing into me
