Leprous
Album • 2009
I wake to bleed another day Dragging my anvil of pain Betrayed, abandoned, rejected by life My torment has branded its stain At ease to leave this forsaken earth My soul is awaiting my cry Directing my lifeline away from its path Soon is the moment I die No way of sharing the pain that I feel Disguising my plans to betray Fire awaiting, my soul will be free Tonight I'm passing away How to live and how to bow The lesson one must learn Distinguish myself from your misery Let's see now who will burn All those who speak without a face Now you'll remember my song Before I was air, but not anymore I might be pale, but I've never felt as strong

Keep in absence of truth My smile within this hollow Trust in me like I trust this noose You will never find out why Fire bleeding from this picture of you Hide from this unpleasant I'd give you the ashes Only I could find one reason to trust in you Let me go now Let go of my hand Find your own place I found my promised land Sink if you will I'll never comprehend Sink if you will I'll never come to your defence Bury yourself Inside your phantom pain All the way down See how much pity you'll gain Fight your shadow In this light you'll go blind I have seen the face of He who lurks behind

Feel the chills down your spine Let me break down Your last will to deny Put your life on the line And surrender your past Don't ask me why You must submit to my fatal mind And make it your own I dare not lie Come now, don't look behind Let me see that you've grown I dare you to die

Head out to the unknown With sincere dismay Fear will direct you Through the safest way Never ask a question Don't reveal a lie Why should you bother? When you can just pass right by? Fate will take care of what to say Fate will lead me to my decay Fate betraying my trust I can't resist it I must Give up when defeated You'll never win a fight Crimson red will stand out in the crowd Where all is white Though nobody bothers If you suffocate You know you can trust me I am fate Fate will take care of what to say Fate will lead me to my decay

Sight, what a terrible sight Seeing my own demise Worms crawl, maggots creeping God, tell me that I am sleeping I'm holding on in vain You have killed again Nursery rhymes off tune Nothing can make it right Letting go without a fight He will kill again She's supposed to light my way Now this light blinds my eye Senses down all is bleak Why did you leave me dry? Die! How could you kill like this? Burning down all that's right Why her smile? Why her life? Speak to me, you have no right Why did this have to be? No colour meets my eye And no tears left to dry Life is but a terrible lie

Something that'll last Forever, but never. Let it grow Hurt from the inside No one's on your side No one to care for Everyone to blame No one to care for Not even a name A dream is reappearing In inversion The mind is working Against the body Signals misinterpreted Language lost The mind is working Against itself Keep building till you reach the sky Don't look back. Don't slow down A dream is reappearing Now is the time to shine Everything inside Keep holding back Don't let it out. Don't let them in

Since the dawn of society, there have reigned a number of commandments one must obey to attain social stability and uniformity. The commandments are: You shall not think that you ARE something. You shall not think that you are equal to US. You shall not think that you are wiser than US. You shall not fancy yourself as better than US. You shall not think that you know more than US. You shall not think that YOU are good at anything. You shall not laugh at US. You shall not think that anyone cares about YOU. You shall not think that you can teach US anything. These norms and values have been used to oppress the free thinkers, making sure that nobody uses their talent to distinguish themselves from their peers.

Pale aversion in fatal alliance Scream for deliverance Fake your own reverence Drifting in and out, I won't lie Insecure my visions blind my Sight, my means, my faith, my view I hate myself for trusting you! Find the door, egress this white world Tie these chains and link what's, take what's Mine, what's yours, you're mine, not yours Above discoloured vomit pours Justification of violence of worst kind I wish I knew it when, White did not mean the end When transfixion occurs as the first state White is all that I see This is how she came to be No contradiction in warfare and worship Sing me a lullaby Please, can you dry this eye?
