An End to Everything

This world is empty And there is nothing Left for me to feel Here Where the light doesn't reach A path I've endlessly walked along Lost in memories of youth Darkness envelopes In passing days My only comfort is misery I belong to the fire To the dirt that sits below I will follow the wreckage Back to the hell that I have known I guard my wounds In a kingdom tunneled low Somewhere in this darkness Is where I havе lost myself I can't remembеr just why I came But I I close my eyes now And listen for your voice To no return So I surrender to the flame I belong to the fire To the dirt that sits below I will be following the wreckage Back to the hell that I have known Back to the hell that I call home I want to see through the eyes of God So peel my skin from my bones Then let this empty world swallow me whole Deconstruct and dissolve all my sense of being Now I see the beginning and the end And I will live forever Forever in the depths I guard my wounds In a kingdom tunneled low Beneath the surface Where I can see Both a beginning and an end to everything I guard my wounds In a kingdom tunneled low Beneath the surface Where I can see Both a beginning and an end to everything I belong to the fire To the dirt that sits below I will follow the wreckage Back to the hell that I call home My hell, my home My hell, my home This world is empty And there is nothing

Tell me You left your life In slow decay Your final breath Is forever in vain Hope is your tomb The warmth was So bitter and stagnant On that hollow day No one to watch you slip away I knew I'd never see your face again The future became fractured Distorted The violence was birthed Out of our sadness Emptiness becomes my home You'd been searching for breath Suffocating You had longed to believe there was a reason A purpose Watching the days From inside of your prison Of hollow flesh That body became your living grave And when we die, how will we know? We were born on ash The end falls upon our backs And on borrowed time We will reap all that we sew Now that your light is extinguished Swallow the blood back Think of everything you had Spread your eyes and watch it go Tell me On borrowed time we will reap all that we sow In the end Is it all for nothing? The fading light And the bitterness of dark I am the void forever And through my eyes You can see the face of death Through my eyes You can see the face of death So when we die, where will we go? We were born on ash The end falls upon our backs And on borrowed time We will reap all that we sew Now as your light is extinguished Swallow the blood back Think of everything you had Spread your eyes and watch it go My distant mind Chaos I cannot fight And in the end Is it all for nothing? I, I make amends The Earth becomes my bed And in the end Is it all for nothing? In the end Is it all for nothing? The fading light And the bitterness of dark I am the void forever And through my eyes You can see the face of death I am, I am And through my eyes You can see the face of death

This is where it ends I have become The ghost that lingers In the dusk I feel the voice of death Calling for me There is no order In the ocean of chaos Is waking life just a dream To distract us from the end? In sorrow I feel the numbness of its hands Reaching for me I whisper out your name I'll never forgive myself Let this cold be your tomb I pull you toward the edge of my being Neither of us escape Now you, too, will feel dеath's embrace This is wherе it ends Dig deep underneath My skin, my blood My nerves and bones And there you will Finally see the purpose Where we find order In the ocean of chaos Deep into my mind I'll set fire to my past mistakes Some day in my past The sunset vanished and All surrounding life Became a blackened cloud of smoke My eyes see life Through a contorted vision I told myself on that day This is where it had to end You will remember me In this shattered world Where dreams run dry In this vast sea Of nothingness I call my own All of my radiance dims There is a place that I There is a place that I have seen Somewhere beyond this skin Through fire The embers glow Between waking and dreams I've let my fears go And I can feel the pressure shift And I can feel the pressure I've been drifting In and out of sleep Somewhere in the back of my mind I can hear the faint alarm sounding Silence would be A warm, welcomed relief But I am burning out And now I will let you go Let you go I long to return To the moment Of our disconnect Life has moved in slow motion For years And I can't separate the days I long to return To the moment Of our disconnect Life has moved in slow motion For years And I can't separate

Do you see them? All who have gone before us They stare from above, open arms But I don't think that I'm ready To let this world slip away When I return To the Earth I will catch my breath Lay my head on the cold, calm ground beneath me And rest my eyes for a thousand days Until the end of time I have stared deep into the abyss Its embrace next to mine, exiled from this life I can see it, I can taste it I will never touch its skin Until the end I can feel life's bittеr end Climbing up my spine like thе cold Sinking deep into my skin Pull me into that black hole Until the end of time Do you hear them? All who have gone before us Their voices echo But I don't think that I am ready Do you see them? They stare from above But I don't think that I'm ready To watch this world slip away I can feel life's bitter end Climbing up my spine like the cold Sinking deep into my skin Pull me into that black hole I can feel life's bitter end Rising right along with the sun Sinking deep into my skin It seems like life had just begun As the days pass I feel the end As the days pass I feel the end Mother, will I breathe again? Again? When I return To the Earth I will catch my breath Lay my head on the cold, calm ground beneath me And rest my eyes for a thousand days

As I walk through the depths Of an empty life So dim and hollow I can see the days I've lived Pass by me in reverse Now come back to me Dear Sun I've had enough Life was beginning When I learned we all will fade Can I shed this old skin? I've been pacing back and forth And I cannot take it again Return to me This is not how I Had thought it would be All that we work for Is all that is lost in the end There's no escaping As the light of the day Slips slowly from my grasp I deteriorate Until there's nothing left Nothing in this abyss compares To breathing in another rush of the air Dreams and reality coalesce I know now that I am not of this flesh We are not of this flesh Flesh Feel the cold Embracing my bones Sinking in Death's comfort On my skin Call my name and I'll know it's real Let the days you've lost Echo in your mind As you wither With time Into the darkness You have given your life For the sake of something less Than you had envisioned This disease, it will take from us Until there is nothing left Now there's only dust collecting Where your body did once lie Just a shadow in the framework Of an ordinary life But I'll hold you close to me In this memory of mine Though I am, like any other Just a fleeting part of time Return to me This is not how I Had thought it would be All that we work for Is all that is lost in the end There's no escape As the light of the day Slips slowly from my grasp I deteriorate Until there's nothing left
