lyrics

Severe emotional struggle
At the place where mentality bends
A spot of the mind where you constantly weep
For something never worth

The scent of the rose is the weakness
The thorn in your side is the cause
Silence becoming your weapon of choice
And all that was you is lost

Enter a landscape of darkness
Hiding away from the eyes of the world
Where feelings fall like white flakes of snow
And emotions are buried in ice

Death comes alive as an instinct
Encrypted in thick fractal mass
A sorrowful face and the ghost of a smile
Reflecting nothing but scars

Seasons lie dead and forgotten
Distorting our hopes in a murderous way
Bodies sleep cold in the background
Caressed by the frost of the winter within

Crossing the border of conscience
Afraid of yourself
Now fear is your lover
And your closest friend

Stillborn the vision appears in crystalline form
A glimpse of reality between lines of smoke

I see red
It’s filling me up
Embraces the mirror
And cracks the ice

Inside a conceptual abyss
The voice rings hollow
It completes the illusion
But never the dream

Deaf and blind - Your own extinction
