Cutting yourself to relieve the pain, Try to believe that you're sane, Self mutilation for self redemption, Now you're on your own. Cutting yourself your despondency, Mental distress overwhelming now, Cold blunt steel now is critical, Now you're on your own. Severe emotional distress Seperate the anguish, seperate this fear, Seperate from sadness, Now I see things much too clear. Cutting yourself a dependency, Anxiety mixed with agony, Bleed out the grief with a knife, Now you're on your own. Cutting yourself end this wretchedness, Tribulation will not finish this, Lacerations cannot help you, Now you're on your own.

Endless suffering, enduring this pain Cast aside tolerence, this torture remains the same This endless torture remains the same Eclipse and masking all that you ever were Shards of reality slicing through your mind Escaping this grieving nightmare And I fall into nothing Forever jaded And I hold onto nothingness Dissolving my senses Distorting the paralleled Contorting the grieving world around you This endless torture remains the same Through these eyes you pierce and smash those warped perceptions of this relentless debauchery Escaping this grieving nightmare And I fall into nothing Forever jaded And I hold onto nothingness Dissolving my senses Tolerate my being Binded by my hate Calm this relentless craving Before it's too late

Scorched by winter's wrath I lay still in the night This winter's choking embrace Leaves me with no will to fight Timeless winter My heart decayed and deadened By this ravenous winter Forsee the end is frozen Begins this timeless winter Forever crimson, warmth shrouds my body and soul As two worlds collide my being dwells within this empty black hole Death embraces be, destroying my sanity, reaching for the light Fading to darkness, this feeling of emptiness, my physical perish with sight My heart decayed and deadened By this ravenous winter Forsee the end is frozen Begins this timeless winter Seamless neverending time As I begin to quiver I lay still with these crystals of cold This lifeless body begins to wither

Your destiny in despair Offered no escape Chronic burden terminal Winds of plague End this dream Out of sight, out of mind Shades of black despondency Out of sight, out of mind My spirit crushed by agony Out of sight, out of mind Going blind Out of sight, out of mind Walking blind Abandon hope, relinquish Undo this creation Ethereal collapse terminal Cast aside, wither away As the light in your eyes Fade from your lifeless body Transcending on your way out Desperation, dejection An eventual ending Spiraling into a void Lethal end incurable Standing on the ledge Euthanasia Going over the edge Not the answer

Hiding again behind your wall Decay, decline, a downfall A failure forgotten out of time Collapsed so long ago Drifting on Lost on the way A past beyond memory Gone past the point of no return Lead to a place so far gone The dark embraces all your fears Someday you'll rise again Drifting on Lost on the way A past beyond memory Minutes seem to pass away Lost upon my way A past beyond memory

Surrounded by night This placid dark is so consuming As I start my journey home I feel the cold wind in my flesh face I'm dying to be warm Surrounded by night The coma blankets all emotion As I start this requiem I'll take just one last breath For this last sleep I'm dying to be home My paths been set Never second guess This undying need for warmth Our lives surrounded by shameless dillusions Seeking sounds and sight through fates electric light And I'm grasping for control Numb to this darkness Surrounded by night [solo] My paths been set Never second guess This undying need for warmth Our lives surrounded by shameless dillusions Seeking sounds and sight through fates electric light And I'm grasping for control Numb to this darkness Surrounded by night Surrounded by night Surrounded by night

Searching for absolution Nailed to your cross of self redemption Your salvation has long time past Holding onto the curse thats your fate Try to tear these walls down But I will not take the fall First in line Cleanse your sins cast away axieties Today the suffering is done Your dream is dead The end has just begun Try to tear these walls down But I will not take the fall [solo] Forget this life and what you once knew Forget your sins and what is eternal Forget this life and all that you know Forget you’re sins and what is eternal Try to tear these walls down But I will not take the fall

Pulling away slowly Scurrying on Wander through the land escape An absence of data Void of all emotion Hoping this day will be the last Chasing the unobtainable Believing my own lies On the path of self destruction Strangled by emotion Blur the edges of my memory Pain through the breathing Drown myself to help forget Silence in my thinking [solo] Chasing the unobtainable Believing my own lies On the path of self destruction Strangled by emotion Blur the edges of my memory Pain through the breathing Drown myself to help forget Silence in my thinking [solo] There's no believing There's no returning There's no beginning Blur the edges of my memory Pain through the breathing Drown myself to help forget Silence in my thinking

One more breath is one too many Wither away soon to die Nothing left of this badly burned shell Relinquish my breathing Feeling so cold The silence is deafening Feeling so cold In this Elysium dream Covered in dirt Vision dissipates The blackness helps to forget The sweet aroma of death Is in the air Smile as the casket closes Life is a pale shade of gray Choking the life out of me Pointless existence We've fucked up My feelings are dead

Medicate the mind Recover and Evaluate Pills swallowed Sleep sets in Enter the other side Splintered visions Brought on by your mind Splintered visions Believing the lies Recollection thoughts. Trying to understand. One more pill to sedate. Diminishing the pain. Splintered visions Brought on by your mind. Splintered visions Believing the lies You're running forever Getting nowhere Changing routes takes you back to the beginning Falling down Hit the wall Splintered visions You're running forever Getting nowhere Changing routes takes you back to the beginning Falling down Hit the wall Hit the wall
