|
the bell doth toll |
|
the ringing stings in the vacant mind |
|
a feeling all to real of my impending end |
|
but i digress |
|
abhorrent one |
|
who are you to claim reign of me, |
|
to judicate my sins, to condemn my life |
|
but oh this chamber speaks to me |
|
the walls, they breathe and sing their twisted psalms |
|
blood hymns, consumes where darkness creeps |
|
in the voids will i wake, reborn, enlightened |
|
or was i left to remain, chained to this lifeless cage |
|
will i rise from the depths, prevail unbroken |
|
or will this abyss bring me to meet my early grave |
|
do i not see |
|
the rain turn glass |
|
the shards that stab |
|
unrelenting pain |
|
like winters cold |
|
the swarming chills |
|
there will be no warmth to comfort me |
|
but oh this chamber speaks to me |
|
the walls, they breathe and sing their twisted psalms |
|
blood hymns, consumes where darkness creeps |
|
in the voids will i wake, reborn, enlightened |
|
or was i left to remain, chained to this lifeless cage |
|
will i rise from the depths, prevail unbroken |
|
or will this abyss bring me to meet my early grave |
|
these stars that i see, |
|
the lights that now fade |
|
they keep calling my name |
|
though their voices seem |
|
to be the least welcoming |
|
the pulse is starting to slow |
|
the rhythm deranged |
|
the means to an end that i never planned on becoming |
|
gone |
|
gone |
|
in my tomb i will dwell, down the rabbit hole deeper still |
|
i am the sleeper who dreams, the lidless eye thats stirring |
|
an empty vessel to fill by my demons, and my haunting past |
|
the ignorance bread from a confused mind and the will to peer |
|
and i am the reason you hunt for light |
|
i am the reason you hide in fear when the dusk shrouds this lifeless earth |
