Solipsistic Dry Heaves
05:31
|
|||
Reflection distills the meaning of being
Failed logic shrouded by fear
I never agreed to exist in this so called life
Why is life?
Why is pain?
Drowning in silence, heaving isolation
End my life
End my pain
Memories deceive my sense of self regret
Birth to death, a mirror of worthless hope
Time to die, mortality expires
In the mind before the pulse
Why can't I ever be sane?
Life deceives
Death sets free
End this joke of self identity
End my life
End my pain

Ending Soon Now

Life unravels
Death becomes so clear
The panic lifts
As the razor falls (to the floor)
The blood feels warm
As life fades away
So warm and affirming
The razor still, it's job complete
All i was given, all i leave behind
A waste of bones and flesh
Gnarled and tired
Sick with abuse
A key, like stars in the night,
To open the door between worlds
Now i walk
The blade is a compass
Revealing the path to extinction
The map, a constellation
Of veins and severed flesh
The map is now open
Ending soon now

Slave to My Skin
05:31
|

Death was once my only hope
Longing for silence
Longing for the void
In seeking peace all I found was hell herself
Boundless existence beyond the self
Boundless pain and fear
Is this what lies beyond?
I pray death is the end
This broken mind, too weak to bear
Broken by memories
Broken by fear
Fear of what I beheld
Disassembled and cast aside
Abandoned, then returned
To this waste of a life
Boundless pain and fear
Is this what lies beyond?
I pray death is the end
This broken mind, too weak to bear
Broken by memories
Broken by fear
Fear of what I beheld
I know that I am nothing
I've seen beyond life
I know I am nothing
Self is an illusion
(I know I am nothing)
I pray death is the end
Longing for silence
I am nothing
Life is nothing
What is it I see through dead eyes?
I have fallen from hate to complacence
By flesh and devices, I am betrayed
Slave to my skin and the scars that pollute it
Withered, hopeless, I have decayed
I have fallen to depths of complacence
Sick in self-loathing and content to stay
The flesh is a canvas of time and depression
Broken mind, anxious at this life gone to waste

Dust Spirit
03:22
|
|||
A diffuse being
The scattering of light
Crystallized reflections
Of what was
Of all my pain
Of all nothing
Harness the sorrow to me
Wither and wound
The pieces that will never heal
Leave me with the ruin and waste of what was
Leave me with nothing
See me fall forever
Through the colorless skies
The gray
And barren
Paint before me
The hollow and the dead inside
I throw myself into the cold, to the unforgiving
To the shades of bitter regret,
To the tortured thoughts that nothing satisfies
I betray life
And bury your promise of happiness in the ancient grave of hope
Walk with me you, ghost of my sorrows,
Lay with me
Down
In the dust of my grief
(Stir away now my weakness for I seek the tomb)

Suicide Eyes
05:23
|
|||
Never to speak again
This is my last word
Never to wake again
This is my last glimpse of this world
I'll never see you again
Suicide is in my eyes
Blind to your promises of hope
Death is the only thought
My mind is fucking black
I'll never see you again
I'll never see you again

Annihilated
Inarticulate
Shadow cast sight
Two broken fingers
Scabbed clothing dried into cut up flesh
I can't feel
Medicated blind
Hallucinating and
Starving myself to death
Lights
Visions
Symptoms of my disorder
Stupid
Fumbling
I'm a danger to myself
Mood-swinging from the end of a rope
Gradient life draining gray
Dying
Shrouded in wounds of the soul
Those which never scab and bleed eternal
Drying my mind
Dull my sight
Pitched further into the skin I detest
Stab
Stab into my flesh
Scrape away through the blood and meat
Hopeless
Hollow my bones
Open my veins
See the void of I
Shrouded in Pain
I succumb to the hatred
I succumb to the loneliness
I succumb to desperation
I succumb to disgust
I succumb to the guilt and shame
I succumb to the loss
Circle of salvation tighten and break
The breath
The chain
The neck
The life that never was
Hurt me
Kill me
