lyrics

So here we are
This is what it looks like
Not much for comfort
But that’s of no concern now
Stripped of dignity
Embracing the misery
Left alone with only thoughts
Inside this room, left to rot

Entering
Brandishing
Scrutiny
Despair
Torturer
Separation
Anxiety
Desolation

Moving for a mirror
None can be found here
No image, no reflection
Grasping for perception
Courteous, Mysterious
Sympathetic, diplomatic
Callous, Malice
A twisted mouth

Fear has, no place here
It’s pointless now
Suffering has yet to begin
Just wait for what's in store

I have wronged
I have sinned
I will face my destiny

In walks beauty, the absent
No tormentor in sight
Laughable thoughts ignite
Lament this mirthless rite
Reflection on the past
Silent contemplation at last
Everything left to chance
Conjecture, yet to pass

Erroneous judgement led down this rabbit hole
A sickening smile disturbs the wretched
Transgressions laid to bear
The prosecutor, made clear

Be it greed, be it envy
No miscreants worth saving
Solace in silence
Rumination
Enslaving
True vanity
Exposed
Reticent
Repose
Filthy human nature
No matter the nomenclature

The grace, the allure
Too much to endure
Imperfection, indiscretion
Diabolical perfection
Passivity, personality
Ubiquity excreting
Never alone, forsaken
Realize escape is fleeting

Adultery, savagery, barbaric intent
Sapphic pleasures and a rope around the neck
A bastard child, asphyxiation, regret, to go along with a bullet to the head

I have wronged
I have sinned
I will face my destiny

No assistance is required
The time for aid expired
With all the “human feeling” gone
There is no link, no bond
Atrabilious, dejected, rotten to core
Only a touch is not so easily ignored

Was cowardice the key?
Gather the strength to leave
Cannot let the matter be
Subjected to this agony

Hell is other people

The passion resounds
The knife comes crashing down
The howling, ensuing
Humanity's undoing

Paper falls to the floor
All the residents abhor
Let’s get on with it
Let’s get on with it
