lyrics

My Kingdom
My hell created in the haze of the cynics eye
A far cry from the decadence of your time

Burn me
Reduce me (to ashes)
Raw matter
Cold and sentient
I alone
Find the darkness
That lies beneath
Am I free

Your arms wrapped around me
As I’m crushed by the weight of the world
The blood has soaked to deep to see
The essence of light again
Alive or reliving a memory
A thousand ways to see me fade
One last time

Rivers flow to an empty sea
Only fear is there to greet me
Utopia defaced
By a familiar gait
Counting the moments between breaths
Await the final pull
Wishing that you could waste
Your final moments with me
I can not see beyond
These wandering stars
Yet here I am free

Your arms wrapped around me
As I’m crushed by the weight of the world
The blood has soaked to deep to see
The essence of light again
Alive or reliving a memory
A thousand ways to see me fade
One last time
