Callous and empty
Lifeless image Echoes, them echoes Strangles my will To become something else Hope will perish within me And lower me with a smile Rid me from my burden Let me sleep for a while Days go by Nothing changes Nothing lives In this half-light existence Anymore Dead silent Inner turmoil Half-light existence Breathless,thoughts of dying These moments never fail To remind me Hope will perish within me And lower me with a smile Rid me from my burden Let me see sleep for a while Days go by Nothing changes Nothing lives In this half-light existence Anymore 02. Dead Words Speak Music & lyrics by J. Ericson
Ailments of grey cover these hurtful limbs
A seething anger grows Voiceless come your calls Dead words speak They speak to me at night And sometimes I get frightened Gives no peace And sometime I'll get frightened 'Cause sometimes they are right I can't seem to rid this burden I bear Ghost of misty mornings, please disappear It sickens and destroys everything I've built And tears down the walls with anger and guilt Dead words speak They speak to me at night And sometimes I get frightened Gives no peace They hunt me at night And sometimes I get frightened 'Cause sometimes they are right I can't seem to rid this burden I bear Ghost of misty mornings, please disappear 03. The Lachrymal Sleep Music & lyrics by J. Ericson
Useless numb existence, I breathe
My tired limbs crawling through mud Sickening clamour from bodies so still Weakened by each moment I breathe Let me slip into hiding Let me dream, one final dream In this coffin of light In which I live kills my will To feel alive I beg you to, help me through Red colours the broken Embodies the snow I bleed with the cold Let me slip into hiding Let me dream, One final dream In this coffin of light In which I live kills my will To feel alive I beg you to, help me through 04. Upon The Cataract Music & lyrics by J. Ericson
Sadness, drowning me again,
Sickness, crawling through the murk I can hear the water come rushing in My life, it feels like a disease Sleepless, hiding from the sun Lifeless, fallen to the ground It stains my soul It leaves me cold I've foreseen my downfall Paint my soul In colours of the old Broken down, I fall Useless, words become useless Drowning, I face the final fall The world is no more... It washes over me like a disease I can't forget you, I can't be free from the memories Down, down we go from here There's no place better Kill, kill me dear, I can't hear any laughter Your shameful face swallows your soul Kill, kill what's left of me I can't go any further I used to be so fucking strong But now I have nothing Faceless I have become, Sleepless, sleepless once again Hiding from the sun... It stains my soul It leaves me cold I've foreseen my downfall Paint my soul In colours of the old Broken down, I fall 05. Leaden Winged Burden Music & lyrics by J. Ericson
No words can help me
Down here, I dwell Recollect, must forget Try to sleep, in too deep It stains my soul, it hurts to know Down below the darkness grow I burned my wings for less than nothing I failed to see, forgot to breathe I am to blame, breathing the shame It sickens my heart, it tears me apart Cursed by the sun, what have I done? I am to blame, breathing the shame It sickens my heart, it tears me apart O burden let go, help me to grow I don't deserve, your precious words They're haunting me, they disagree I can't see, I can't believe In this world, better leave 06. Threnode Music & lyrics by J. Ericson
I despise my own existence
I am all yet nothing I distrust the human condition With every breath I take The world is dead through my eyes The flesh, a grievous swarm of flies I'm blinded by the piercing light Sickened by this false harmony The world is dead though my eyes The flesh, a grievous swarm of flies. Life; like a wound that acts Dragging me down through a torn existence My restless soul I seek comfort in the darkest of times Time keeps dragging on I feel like I don't belong The world is dead though my eyes The flesh, a grievous swarm of flies. Life; like a wound that acts Dragging me down through a torn existence My restless soul Pierced by the light The silence grows There's nothing left but the stains |
