I'm holding back a tide
Relentless surging, churning miasma
Holding sickness at stride, put aside your nightmares
Embrace infinity's grey eyes

They're burning right through you
The ringing, writhing in you

Forcefully derived, forging disregard
Seething, nurtured in flame
Once servant, now master
Slaving, oneself to oneself

Echo these words in vast caverns
Echo these words throughout the void

The stifling cold now subliming
Place distance betwixt us, I beseech you
Keep me at bay lest I reach you
To inflict pain, design your suffering

Becoming that I had studied
Which I had despised
Seeking an end out of spite
I was seeking an end, but I received life

Encrusting binds fall to the ground
Its breaking out, grinding the inside out
Encrusting binds fall to the ground
Its breaking out, grinding the inside out

I had longed for this
Wasting countless decades
Carving count lines in my skull
The walls wore thin
I would outlast myself

You caught me brooding
Moving the lines of self control
It tore apart the fibres
The substance of a whole

Scraping, removing the outer layers
Just beneath the skin
Just beneath the mind
Submerged in the lucid depths undescribed

It's the truth we all exonerate
Knowing we will each one day dissipate

Each born to fleet
Be joy, be suffering
Contradict all
All here for nothing
