Beneath the Mire

Haunted nights for halcyon days

Can't sleep to the scraping of his voice

Nature's way struck grief in me

And I became a ghost in sicknessWillingly guided into heresy

Beneath the surface, stark emptiness

And you'd pity my conviction

Whereas I thought of myself as a leaderYou'd cling to your pleasant hope

It is twisted fascination

While I'd ruin the obstacles into despair

And I'm praising deathLost love of the heart

In a holocaust scene memoryDecrepit body wearing transparent skin

Inside the smoke of failureWept for solace and submit to faith

In his shadow I'm choking, yet flourishingMaster, a delusion made me stronger

Yet I'm draped in pale withering flesh

I sacrificed more than I had

And left my woes beneath the mire
