THROUGH DARKNESS AND FLAME
I’ve spent too goddamned long
While hearing the same fucking song
I know that deep inside I cant go on
Driving nails through my bones
I may sit for a spell
With nothing left for me to sell
The only way out is to crawl through Hell
Push against burning gales
Holding on by my fingertips
Broken and bleeding, I’m falling away
The skin on my hands start to rip
Shall I reach the end through darkness and flame?
I feel the coming end
A fucking corpse in the wind
Of all the places I’ve never been
Miss the halls of lament
Entropy is the way
The rise of all the demons slain
And I must crawl my way through the grave
Can’t face another day
Holding on by my fingertips
Broken and bleeding, I’m falling away
The skin on my hands start to rip
Shall I reach the end through darkness and flame?
DRAG my chains with abandonment and doom
DRAWN to the ghostly light of victim’s tombs
DROWN me in blood beneath the haunted moon
DASH me against those oh so jagged cliffs
DOWN in the blackest and utter abyss
DAMN, I cannot keep existing like this
Holding on by my fingertips
Broken and bleeding, I’m falling away
The skin on my hands start to rip
Shall I reach the end through darkness and flame?
I may sit for a spell
With nothing left for me to sell
The only way out is to crawl through Hell
Push against burning gales
Holding on by my fingertips
Broken and bleeding, I’m falling away
The skin on my hands start to rip
Shall I reach the end through darkness and flame?
DRAG my chains with abandonment and doom
DRAWN to the ghostly light of victim’s tombs
DROWN me in blood beneath the haunted moon
DASH me against those oh so jagged cliffs
DOWN in the blackest and utter abyss
DAMN, I cannot keep existing like this
While hearing the same fucking song
I know that deep inside I cant go on
Driving nails through my bones
I may sit for a spell
With nothing left for me to sell
The only way out is to crawl through Hell
Push against burning gales
Holding on by my fingertips
Broken and bleeding, I’m falling away
The skin on my hands start to rip
Shall I reach the end through darkness and flame?
I feel the coming end
A fucking corpse in the wind
Of all the places I’ve never been
Miss the halls of lament
Entropy is the way
The rise of all the demons slain
And I must crawl my way through the grave
Can’t face another day
Holding on by my fingertips
Broken and bleeding, I’m falling away
