Deadspace - Reaching For Silence lyrics



Tracks



01. Deadspace - Glass Houses

Broken hands
Still reaching for meaning

I am, I am a ghost

And I am at home with this
This is my reprieve

I am a goat with three legs
And one eye
I am a ghost, still breathing

I am alone in this
You are alone as well
In this glass house
And I am now at home with this
I am a ghost

02. Deadspace - Flesh To Chew, Teeth To Swallow

A bitter pill
Washed down with 30ml of complete systematic failure

It's been a while
Since we touch the real sky
This hopelessness, the decay
The cancer running through our veins

Voluntarily gagged and bound
What does not kill us makes us ponder this hell
It's not the first time you've run from yourself

50 odd years of sleepless demolition
Leaves you running in submission

"Oh, the silent decay
A dead end scape inside you
(A dead end scape inside your heart)
To keep running from"

Say your prayers say your prayers my darling
Together we'll drown, in the cold silence
The future we all knew we had coming

Say your prayers, say your prayers, is this the end?

03. Deadspace - Phantom Limb

[Instrumental]

04. Deadspace - Epilogue

Stay away
Stay away from here

I know, I know what it looks like from a distance
They can't take our teeth
But we're still dead in water

In a toxic neurosis
I know I'm young but so are you
They're pressing the chisel into our biceps
A reminder we walk alone

We walk alone

I can't tell you how to feel
Slowly the faces are distorting

It's in the trees, the tears, the calling
The fabric of existence is breaking

And the wind, she whispers, sweet nothings
(While we sleep in darkness)
To author our epilogue
It makes me feel like I'm alive
To author the epilogue

Blindfolds aside
As they fuck us from the inside

I know, I know what it looks like from a distance

I'm sick of counting sheep
Just let me sleep and leave me the fuck alone.

Stay away, stay away

05. Deadspace - Nostalgia, Like A Plague, She Rapes Me To Sleep

I barely remember
Clutched to the breast
Of an aching shadow of a desperate lover
I'm bleeding freely now
My corpse, my lover

The dripping strings pulled through my veins
They're so hard to find now
I'm splitting apart beneath the surface

The stars are weeping now
Amongst the eternal darkness
The only life left
And soon there'll be no more

The emptiness that is my soul
I haven't seen myself in so long

I haven't seen myself in so long

You left me drunk for years
And waiting to wake in agony?

And time stood still in her passing

I'm splitting apart beneath the surface

How long will you hold me tight?
Crushing my chest, denying me of light
All of my fucking life, I've dreamed of going limp in your arms
The bars on my heart?

"We're never apart, those nights you ripped my flesh from bone.
For that, I'll never be alone? for now.
You plague my most erotic nightmares and vivid dreams
Every cold loveless night, you drive me to lunacy

Raping me to tears
Or at least so it seems
