lyrics

I only felt the cold that day
But I still said ‘come whatever may’
For I knew in my heart
What they see with their eyes
Through their eyes
Nothing is real

Pull the black over their eyes
Tell them everything will be alright
My thoughts pulled through the back of my skull
You know we’re all dead
We inherit the struggle, though our courage will never die
Those who’ve passed before us, they belong to us, they belong to me

Fighting regression, but never victorious
They belong to us, they belong to me.

A vision of death playing over and over in my head
It was meant to be
Consumed by this cancer, we can’t continue

As soon as I vanquish this terror
I’m hindered by the rot inside my bones
Self-preservation deterioration, the way it’s meant to be.

Beneath the archive, we fester as worms
Decaying into time, complacent of our infection
We strive for life, but only in death
But its already too late, all consumed

Flailing at the fabric of time
I wish for closure, for comfort
But it schisms apart upon this breaking dawn
I can’t go on and it’s worth nothing without you

We strive for life, but only in death
But its already too late, all consumed
