All I heard was the sound of fish who'd drowned.
|
All I saw was the inside of my eyelids.
|
All I said fell short of reaching open ears.
|
Word's floating, clouding the view...
|
a˘ć©«See no, hear no, speak no evila˘ć? leave you deaf, dumb and blind, because the bad is all that you'll find.
|
A deeply heart-felt goodbye to the part of me that dies when I decided to put others before me, yes, my heart fell asleep -- boredom and fatigue.
|
I always said I wanted to die smiling, to pretend I'm at peave.
|
Now from my corpse beams a frigid, blank grin and once hopeful eyes are sunken in.
|
Like a lullaby to the cradle is the eulogy to the casket.
|
All my flaws swept under the table to grieve the porcelain doll that was me.
|
Their solemn songs sang me to sleep as my body escaped me.
|
Welcome down to the new world!
|
Happiness is being interred!
|
Such a shameful masquerade!
|
Fleeting, frozen minutes on display.
|
Why is evolution such a shameful thing to say?
|
Can you feel your bodily decay?
|
Arms are beside me, hands open wide.
|
Seems I was living my life in rewind, taking so many steps backwards, not looking behind.
|
Because I can sure as hell feel my brain going blank.
|
If my body betrays me, this pollution to thank.
|
This condition infects my cells like it controls my mind.
|
Internal army, defend me behind enemy lines!
|
Fragile vehicle of mine!
|
Don't abandon me yet!
|
There is so much to live for that we so easily forget.
|
Fascination with the fear...
|
The concept escapes me.
|
All encompassing fate... how it wrenches out hearts, torments our souls ans sings us all to sleep, to an eternal keep, no matter what beliefs, it sings us all...
