The Bargain from Commute by Solstice Coil

An open wound can only heal
If it's allowed to see the light of day
As long as I can keep negotiating
There will be no need to go ahead

Maybe I can overcome this permanent reality
Maybe I'm the one who finally pulls this off
Maybe if I think about it all the time it will be silenced
Maybe I can drop out of the race

This deadly feeling
Has turned into a safety blanket
These calculations are keeping me alive
Anchoring the water into sand

Maybe if I make the bargain there will be no supernova
Maybe everything we know is wrong
Maybe if I keep it locked out of my mind I won't be silenced
Maybe I can win this after all

If I stick to this stage
I'll be here forever
The bargain is made
No longer in danger
If I stick to this cage
I won't have to linger
The bargain is made

Consciousness spreading across the space
Or disappearing in the air
It's all the same for this construction of flesh
The only option that makes sense is what I know not to be true

If I stick to this stage
I'll be here forever
The bargain is made
No longer in danger
If I stick to this cage
I won't have to linger
The bargain is made

If I stick to this stage
I'll be here forever
The bargain is made
No longer in danger
If I stick to this cage
I won't have to linger
The bargain is made
