Let's count the layers then
Then multiply by ten
A cross section of prayers
And erase all the sin
Strata of Fear, laminate my life
Strata of Fear, sharpen well the knife
Drop a penny through
Collect a sample on the face
Count the lines, count the rings
The slide is upon the stage
Strata of Fear, laminate my life
Strata of Fear, sharpen well the knife
All you staring from earth
Are you real sure
All you staring from earth
Up here lies the cure
I play dead
