Pulldrone
Ethel Cain Song Lyrics

One, apathy

I am what I am and I am nothing

Two, disruption

There goes a great shudder through the muscle

A shimmering of bells through the mist

Three, curiosity

One quick moment to crane the neck

I have always possessed the insatiable need to see what happens inside the room

Four, assimilation

Lo, wellspring of knowledge

Of feeling, of sensation

Beauty, overwhelming

I will dislocate my jaw to fit it all in

Five, aggrandization

The pull, yes, the pull

Send down your cordage of suffocation and let me in

Six, delineation

I want to know what god knows, and I will be with him

Sent over the edge, I sigh

Flush against the veil, I sing

Seven, perversion

It is no good bearing false witness

The sinner's errand

I am what I am but we are not the same

It is no good speaking of fairness, the fools errand

Eight, resentment

Are these laurels to be proud of?

Let me tell you how much I've come to hate you since I began to live

Hate, hate

Nine, separation

I was an angel, though plummeting

The stars are as beams shining through the wheel

I am sure that hell must be cold

Ten, degradation

Nature chews on me

Eleven, annihilation

This agony

Such is the consequence of audience

I will claw my way back to the great dark and we will not speak of this place again

Twelve, desolation

Therein lies sacred geometry of onanism

Of ouroboros

Of punishment

I am that I was as I no longer am for I am nothing.
