Light the torches

Fill the trenches with their bodies

Bury your dead

Soar on the wings of survival



Calloused hands

Heavy incantations

Slowly descending

Slowly dissolving



Dark water calls out my name

Carry me through an endless winter



I can survive on silence alone



Encased in solace

Entombed in despair

White walls surround me

This black feeling betrays me



We will be silent tonight

The winter spills into my bones



Remember your name

Remember your mind



I turn to glass and shatter

Shards in my throat

Shards in my throat



Why can’t I breathe

Why do my lungs fill with blood when I scream

when I scream





Why can’t I breathe

Why do my lungs fill with blood when I scream

Fill with blood when I scream



A shrine to my sincerity

Like bones in an endless ocean

Like the breath of a dying angel



When I disappear

When I find the end of my affliction

An addiction that destroys me



I will not betray my future

I will not descend in silence

A reckoning of my faithless spiral

A soul searching for solitude



In the arms of a thousand devils



I turn to glass and shatter

Shards in my throat

Shards in my throat



Lifeless I ignite

Moratorium of transcendence

Cold in the ground lifeless in the dirt



The fate of a curse

The end of my anguish

An endless superstition

An endless incantation



Another needle in my eye
