Catharsis


All of My Misery •

I'll drag this coffin
so when the day comes
I may lie for my eternal rest.

I see death everywhere gripping at me
it daunts me for long as I can remember
and I'm done running from my own ghosts.

I kiss my hopes goodbye, 
so please cover my eyes, 
pay me a bribe to the dead, 
be misery my antagonic alibi.

Colère •

I hope you're still out there 
lost in the thin lines of your truth 
raining tears of a milk-white dream.

I'm grateful regret still haunts me, 
so I can guard my memory of you, 
how dreadfully it chokes me.

Crush my skull against a wall 
so I can be whole again 
and my shadow's set free.

Catharsis •

Only when you abandon yourself
can you meet god's real face
affixed with a death sentence
thrown out of grace at your feet.

So pull the string
and toss me away to the wolves
for death is the token you bring.

A trial until I draw my last breath
so all of creation might sovereign
my suffering haunted with all my seethe.
