Habitual Decline

What the fuck is faith? A blank slate stained black, dissolve into infinity What the fuck is truth? Painted lies, the demise of the mind, habitual decline It's hard to see in the voids I create Spiral down absent of a remedy A brand new hell, I can't escape Chasing my demons to sleep Abandon all I know until I dissipate As far as I'm concerned, I never got what I gave Is there something else that I should know Before I send my soul to the fire below? This is the gloom of the silence that echoes through Suppress the feeling I lack peace of mind No matter where we shine We leave a shadow behind Mirrored empathy The face of hate reflected back at me It's hard to comprehend Giving all you have to leave empty-handed in the end What the fuck is faith? What the fuck is faith? Abandon all I know until I dissipate As far as I'm concerned, I never got what I gave Is there something else that I should know Before I send my soul below? Abandon all I love until I decompose No grave deep enough to call my own Is there something else that I should know Before I send my soul to the fire below? This is the gloom of the silence that echoes through Suppress the feeling I lack peace of mind No matter where we shine We leave a shadow behind, oh
