Respite Lyrics

Album: Wretched

I am paralyzed by a sensation,

a cacophonous drone that eternally echoes,

spewing gloom and malice.

Capricious in its nature, I turn inward

delving into an introspective stupor.

I should not waste my time and breath

contemplating the inadequacies of

a frail human form.

A contemptuous manifestation,

an insignificant apparition.

My eyes ache as I force them

open to see, to see the light.

Consumed by inescapable dread.

I feel cold.

I feel cold.

I am drowning.

Lies pour forth through gritted teeth,

crying “One. One more day.”

In lucid dreams, I hear voices beckoning me,

“One more day.”

Lies pour forth through gritted teeth,

They cry out to me “One more. One more day.”

In lucid dreams, I hear the voices,

they’re beckoning me.

“One more day.”

The night is deep and I am drowning.

in an infinite sea of nothingness.

A man's spirit dies, the body falls.

In death, his soul is free to roam.

Never to be found, he walks freely.

Never to be found, he walks freely.

In silent indignation, I whisper in repeat;

Respite shall never come.

Respite shall never come.

I see nothing.

I hear nothing.

I feel nothing.

I am nothing.

Lies pour forth through gritted teeth;

Crying “One more. One more day.”

In lucid dreams, I hear voices beckoning me;

“One more. One more day”

A contemptuous manifestation,

an insignificant apparition

My eyes ache as I force them

open to see (to see) the light

Consumed by inescapable dread,

I feel cold.

I feel cold.

I feel cold.

I am naught.
