(Latent) no escape
(Memories) I navigate
(Forming) through my cave(Deep inside of me)
(Dormant) beneath the skin
(Barren) they keep us in
(Visceral) night and day
(Senses now subdued)
Parasite
Leech upon the guilt from all my wrongs
Lead me on the pathway to the core
Paralyzed
Staring through the shadows on the wall
Unable to solve this puzzle box
The journey′s long, the shadows dance around
The answer lies beyond the fourth wall
My future days are etched into my skull
Hanging ever by a tethered body, mind and soul
Parasite
Leech upon the guilt from all my wrongs
Lead me on the pathway to the core
Paralyzed
Staring through the shadows on the wall
Unable to solve this puzzle box
Truth or deception?
I lose all perception inside
A fleeting sense of self-worth (self-worth)
Evaporates into nothingness (nothing)
A tepid grip on myself (myself)
Melts away to oblivion (away)
Shadows on the wall dance around (parasites)
Reflections in the amber to be found
A puppet on a string soon unwound
The truth inside the cave to be unbound (as thick as thieves)
The path beyond the mountain led me here
The answer crystallized in history
But now the cracks of time begin to show
We lift the veil on what the future holds
The torture of entrapment ever grows (paralyzed)
And now I'm waiting for the afterglow
A beast inside of me awakening
Alas, the consequences of my sins (my golden wings)
Shadows on the wall dance around
Reflections in the amber to be found
A puppet on a string soon unwound
The truth inside the cave to be unbound
Bouncing off the walls
Latent memories (erupting)
Pulling at the cord
Earth beneath my feet (is trembing)
Lightning cracks the sky
′Wakening the beast (inside me)
Rawness in his eyes
Reeking stench of fear (and regret)
Bouncing off the walls (cause and consequences)
Latent memories (show me reverence)
Pulling at the cord (fate or circumstance?)
Earth beneath my feet is trembling (I feel severance)
Lightning cracks the sky (lightning cracks the sky)
'Wakening the beast inside me (eyes intensify)
Rawness in his eyes (I will stay trapped inside)
Reeking stench of fear and regret (until the cells divide)
How can truth set us free when lies are all we have?
How can time heal us when our days are running out?
How can truth set us free when lies are all we have?
How can time heal us when our days are running out?
