I'm Rotting away
A dank cell where I spend all my days
An unpickable lock in an impenetrable fortress of misery A life sentence of endless purgatory
Plunging down into the fathomless depths
Bloodied and bruised I lie
Dreaming of summer skies
And yet I wonder why
Why is God so cruel to us?
Bloodied and bruised I lie
Dreaming of summer skies
And yet I wonder why
Why is God so cruel?
Let me out
Let me out
I take this blade and carve straight through my fetid flesh Blood spilling out as it crashes to the tiles like waves Tearing through tendons carelessly just like unwanted weeds Each slice a bitter release
Each slice a bitter release
This flesh is a prison to me
I'm Rotting away
My skin is young, but my mind has deceased
I'm a slave to a system infected with a deadly disease A life sentence of endless purgatory
Plunging down into the fathomless depths
We are living in a meaningless charade
A hollow waltz to the tune of an arbitrary existence Everything is dreadful
We are nothing
We are no one
We are an impossible miracle chained to a dying planet
We could have been brilliant but instead, we chose to be terrible C'est la vie
Let me out
Gratuitous pain through gritted teeth
Grant unto me eternal peace
Gratuitous pain through gritted teeth
Grant unto me eternal peace
