Black and bruised, but still awake
I sink down to the oceans below
Procrastinating, just to achieve
A solace far darker than coal
Eyes to see, deceivious
My vision is clear
Hard to justify the cause
But the feeling is mutual
Coming with praise
Coming to prey on my own
You're nothing but a sin
Nothing but a sin, come again
First light comes, how relieving
To sink into the gallows below
Raw embers, sheer blake
A dreamlike death of silence and stone
Raging, scorching, as a shell shock
A sudden rapture, a blackout of mind
For all I've seen I endeavour
To eradicate your life
Downfall, shan't we all fall?
A bitter lesson to learn
Strangled, bruised and mangled
Still the animal rises
I won't be afraid
Illusive as your smile
I cannot restrain
To force the end time
Shattered parts of a last wail
Fill the gloom of feral silence
Shadows breathe a serenade
As the crows devour the shreds of life
Eyes to see, deceivious
My vision is clear
Hard to justify the cause
But the feeling is mutual
I won't be afraid
Illusive as your smile
I cannot restrain
To force the end time
And I see
From a sanctuary of feelings of stone
Your turmoil, your struggle
But my walls won't be shaken
By your masquerade
Blessing from below
Cursing from above
