We have lied to the truth and slept in burning beds
Contemplating the distance between uncertain life and death
Chained to an existence that consists of eternal strife
A black veil of endless suffering begs to clothe me Through which i perceive the emptiness of reality
Bereft of emotion
A dying whisper of a dying life
My mind is poisoned with visions of the end
As i drag my heels through the dirt to which I am condemned
A shred of bliss, remains untouchable still
Struggling with hopes the future can’t fulfill
A black veil of endless suffering begs to clothe me Through which I perceive the emptiness of reality
Bereft of emotion
A dying whisper of a dying life
The soil has a thirst for blood
Return my body the earth
Baptize me in fire
Commit me to the ground
