lyrics

Please will you spare me
Oh brittle subconscious mind
Visibly the color of uncertainty
Painted here, so vividly
So please will you spare me

I'm forced to muster a thought
Without the strength to comport
Yearning for comforts lost
Collapsing anxieties
The fervor that breaks in the cause
I am forced to trust all my thoughts without revolt

Frigid now my embrace, it once elated
Motionless abandon, brittle heart castrated
A soul deflected, a soul deflated
As my vessel is fractured, is nothing sacred?

I'm crazed to muster a thought
Without sanity to consult
Yearning for comforts lost
Collapsing walls around me
The fervor that breaks in the cause
I am forced to trust all my thoughts without revolt

Must one learn to love through hatred
There's no sublime state, my mind I violate
Drowning every pore with fear concentrate
Now I am the whore

Another victim of suffocating distress
A dismal noose though I have a use
I won't take your excuse nor this vulnerability abuse
Dead romance and harsh rebuke
No false answers or blessings of youth
An asphyxiation tourniquet choking the life from the truth

Choking the life from the truth
Choking the life from the truth

The tortuous undoing of what feels to be true
Your mind unraveled, solitude you shall pursue
I know, I hear it too
It'll pass like all storms do
The struggles you've suffered through, bid them adieu
Your facade is subdued
For I am the sightless eye, protector of you
If only you knew
If only you knew
If only you knew

Together strictly physical
Blind suffering with lesions internal
She is dead, lying unconscious as she bled
It's only grim from this perspective

Committing treason against all reason
It's abrasive, so distasteful
With empathy disgraced for, a lack of balance and emotion
Committing treason against all reason
It's abrasive, so distasteful
With empathy disgraced for, a lack of balance and emotion

As the lifeless seep on me, I look to the source
As aggression cripples me, I found strength to comport
As truth became clear to me, I'm the fractured and I'm the sword
Draw what's left of my energy, sever ties to this broken world

Saturate me into the dark well, where I am forced to reside
Saturate me into the dark well, where I am forced to hide
Saturate me into the dark well, I fortify on the inside
Saturate me into the dark well, tattered wither left of the wise

Frigid now my embrace, it once elated
Motionless abandon, stone heart reclamation
This loss of transparency, dictates a solemn demise
This exploitation will rape the life from your eyes

You are no more
You are no more
You are no more
You are no more
You are no more
You are no more
