lyrics

Sombre eyes.

Bane, a godless life reanimates
So, to shall pain taking its place in this world, cold and alone
Reveal a flood of fear and hope premeditated
Mothered by gloom, fathered by the abyss
This offer of peace ends the burden of pain
The end of a rope with my woe I will hang
Darkness and hatred bears witness to shame
This story ends with no coffin nor grave

Oh, my touch can never be
My fingers dance as sharpened blades
Oh, the bitter irony
I long to caress hand to cheek

So you think I’m a monster?

So be it
Writhing in blood
So be it
Writhing in blood

If this is all that is living
I’d rather be dead

Look at me and tell me
How can I love with these tragic hands?
How can I exist?
When will this end? or will this be forever

Oh, my touch can never be
My fingers dance as sharpened blades
Oh, the bitter irony
I long to caress hand to cheek

Live for the night
Weep for the day
Staring blankly
I purge out my hate
Life will not mourn for me
