From the recording Relentless
Lyrics
I know not why the devil wants my soul
My shroud is worn, my tomb is cold
The crypt is empty now
Though I don’t walk this earth
I suffer from rebirth and gates of gold
But I am not living in a world where I can breathe
Please come to comfort me – I cannot find the sea
The light is fading – all that’s left to see are memories
Question the cause – I chose unconsciousness
To ease my restlessness
and pacify my youthful rage
But I can’t relax, not in the midst of this charade
Dark shadows calling me
Drawing me nearer my grave
But I am not living in a world where I can breathe
Please come to comfort me – I cannot find the sea
The light is fading – all that’s left to see are memories
What’s left for me to do but sit and wait for you
This is not how – I am not lost
I’m only spinning ’round in circles
I’m searching for a break to make my clean escape
But I am not living in a world where I can breathe
Please come to comfort me – I cannot find the sea
The light is fading – all that’s left to see are memories
And if you should find this is upsetting you
Don’t feel too put upon -
It’s just a black cloud song
