Am I even Brutus still?

And yet both sides curse out at me
As they toil and they languish
Am I even Brutus still?

Time: 1:45
I'd be convinced it was safe
Is it frailty if I languish in warmth from you?
Are your embers where I grieve your coiled ruse?

Time: 1:10
Trapped in the factory, what a calamity
Banished to languish in cramped bits of packaging
Plastic, all cracked and fragmented and rattling

Time: 2:04
In a world that feels empty
We languish in golus
With only our faith aglow

Time: 0:43
No Jesus, No Beast
No pits of sin to languish in
No path of just for us to follow

Time: 2:54
Animals come to be in your zone
Here to languish in your dream home
They meet your gaze in a perfect freedom

Time: 1:06
Roll out the tides
Clothe me in languish
Coin cradle eyes

Time: 1:06
My sense of anguish
This soul, left to languish
Through those deceiving eyes
