Frozen in still life
Restrained by the hope of a new day
Pushed by the horrid voices speaking in serpent tongues
Radiating negativity, pessimism peaks
Toxic air filtered through weakening lungs
The horror bleeds into dreams
Visions of the crystal edge
Glowing with guilt and ambiguity
Dissociative - fading in and out
A grim specter of a past life
Waves of focus disrupting the fray
A road of torment, a moment away
Dissociative - fading in and out
A grim specter of a past life
Waves of focus disrupting the fray
A road of torment, a moment away
Fleeting sanity
Evanescent mind
Tempestuous skies
Frozen in still life
Restrained by the hope of a new day
Pushed by the horrid voices speaking in serpent tongues
Radiating negativity, pessimism peaks
Toxic air filtered through weakening lungs
I hear the call of the void
I hear it screaming my name
No hope and none left to be destroyed
This is my pain
I hear the call of the void
I hear it screaming my name
No hope and none left to be destroyed
This is my shame
This is mine
I hold on to the rocky edge
I gaze down at the impending end
A final thought runs through my head
I drop down to the drowning abyss
I hear the call of the void
I hear the horrible scream
It was only a dream
It was only a dream
Frozen in still life.
