Verse 1

For everyone who's having more fun than me tonight,

Know this like you once knew God, I want to eat you alive

And for everyone who's feeling beautiful and loved tonight

Know with utter certainty that all that's good in your life is going to die





Chorus

No time for subtlety

(I'm gonna ride with Kali tonight!)

Look into the abyss, it looks back at me

(On the ride with Kali tonight!)

I'll learn to love brutality

(When I ride with Kali tonight!)

1st: Look into the abyss, somewhere in there is me

2nd: And we've both become what she wants us to be

(On the ride with Kali tonight!)





Verse 2

Yeah, I've danced with Kali before, back then I was underfoot

That was long before I woke up, before I understood

That there's a sacred silence in clamor, and there's a certain beauty in wrath

And there's a kind of ecstacy that comes from your knife in my back





(CHORUS)





Bridge

And I see our childhoods huddled together on an endless stretch of ice

Confused and grieving forever at our empty sacrifice

And I feel a darkness rising and you know I know wrath

And there's a certain beauty in it and what it leaves in its path





And I see our childhood float away on an empty stretch of ice

Heartbroken, pleading forever, please don't make this sacrifice

And I feel a darkness rising and you know I know wrath

And there's a certain beauty in it and what it leaves in its path





Outro

I'm living in the shadow

Of the wing of the thing that's too big to be seen





So I ride

with Kali tonight.
