lyrics

DE PROFUNDIS LAMENT

Everyday I'm going worse
Never a man has known my curse
I'm born to grow ridiculous
The time is flying not a tie hasn't yet burst
Who called this nightmare to start ?
I tell you life's not worth a fistful of dirt
Wear a mask and spit your notes
But dont call it art
Even the stars said they'd last at first
Even your mind faked its own birth
Undress your fist wear velvet heels
Pave the way for those who kneel

I said everyday I'm going worse
My thoughts are stuck inside your hearse
And if it's death that waits around
Then time is right I'm about to make it burst
Who called this nightmare to start ?
The pain is real when you dream that you're hurt
No more masks curtain's closed
It's falling apart
If you're a star then you shot me first
If there's anything we can trust
Left from the world we used to know
Drifted away by those who blow
Then bite the snake and ride the lightning
You're a first class killer on a crowded ring
Climb the steps seek the heights
Fight your thirst yeah eat some sand

Oh Mother, I fear the lack of drism
In my bed there ain't no realism
I lost the faith and I lost the way
Cause you made me turn from green to grey
Mother, I'm prisoner of the prism
And my sin took me to another season
I am death, a never ending hole
Make me alive, for you ought my soul

Mother
Please
Hear my call
Please
Mother

Well go ahead search for the lights
But dont take my hand
Im gone deaf for the yellIn the depth wouldn't stop to the sound of any bell
And for my hearing guided my pace
I, unsound in this blinding place
Get at least to know the taste of rest
If you're a star then you shot me first
If there's anything we can trust
Left from the world we used to know
Drifted away by those who blow
