I BECOME SUFFERING
There is a darkness
At the heart of existence
The place where I dwell
Empty void that you call Hell
I become suffering
When I look in the mirror
It’s never been more clearer
When I become suffering
If I die for you
Will you let me go?
Carved into the bone
Where the ghosts moan for lost lives
From desolate sands
To the black land of the damned
I become suffering
When I look in the mirror
It’s never been more clearer
When I become suffering
If I die for you
Will you let me go?
Drowning in the essence
Of the twisting tides
Choking me severely
Pulling me under
I never had a chance
To pull away from
Talons of perdition
I cannot break free
I become suffering
When I look in the mirror
It’s never been more clearer
When I become suffering
If I die for you
Will you let me go?
