The Void Alone

Compulsion and numbness become
 The only way that i can survive
 This moment is the closest thing
 I'll ever have to paradise
 Color reflects as the night projects
 A glitch in the frame for this life of excess
 Tell me secrets of life and death
 For i foresee my grave
 Forget the past
 Or be swarmed with regret
 A pulse in the veins
 As i wait for the end
 Fighting fear i wait in agony
 Seeping into the soil
 Rust upon the coil
 I am swarmed with self contempt
 Never again, no never again
 I don't want to face
 The Void Alone
 The warmth in me
 Swallowed whole
 The sequence of the frames
 A young child alone
 Speak to me
 So gracefully
 You saw me through the lights
 And we had only time
 Paradise awaits as i unfold
 Bleeding days into the soil
 Forgetting the child you always were
 Becoming the man takes more than words
 Hate the way my thoughts they sway
 Home is but a place, a cage in a frame
