Time Made Mass Songtext
von Caged Bastard

The flood did not ask permission
It did not speak
It arrived whole
Arrived Violent

He did not survive
By innocence
He did not remain
By chance

Pressure teaches
What mercy cannot
The sea removes
What should not stand

He remembers
The force
He remembers
The weight

He did not cleanse the past
He did not rename the damage


Memory remains
Unsoftened

What attempted to devour him
Did not destroy him
What drowned others
Taught him mass

The stone carries
The sea inside it
Silent
Compressed
Unforgiving

He does not forget
He affirms

The chaos remains
As measure

Every splinter
Is remembrance
Every scar
Is geometry


He stands
Because the water passed through him
And found
Nothing hollow
