Sever the Memory
Sever the Memory: Breaking Free from Oppression
Lyrics
Locked inside of this oppressive life
Feeling trapped within a burdensome existence
You've surrendered your mind to its conformity
Choosing to conform and surrendering one's mind to oppressive norms
You lost all you once had to its fucking lies
Having lost everything to deceitful falsehoods
Bringing those you loved down with you
Causing harm to loved ones by embracing a destructive way of life
It seemed like an eternity i was lost... lost in your lies
Experiencing a prolonged period of being deceived by lies
Striving for a breath of change you would never give
Struggling for positive change denied by the oppressive force
Taught to enslave the ones who can't fight your way of life
Being taught to subjugate those who can't resist the oppressive lifestyle
This was not my choice
Expressing a lack of choice in adopting this way of life
Give me a reason to look back on you
Seeking a reason to break free and defy the oppressive force
And defy my strength
Challenging the influence and finding strength to resist
Give me a reason not to smash your face in
Desiring a compelling reason not to respond violently to the oppression
You're worthless in my eyes
Considering the oppressor as worthless
On my own. I don't crave redemption
Preferring independence over seeking redemption in lies
In your fucking lies
Rejecting the deceptive nature of the oppressive lies
As you inflicted you could not give me solace
Being denied solace by the oppressor's actions
You're worthless in my eyes
Reiterating the oppressor's worthlessness
Sever it all from my thoughts the bloodshed the torment
Expressing a desire to cut off thoughts related to bloodshed and torment
Sever the memory
Advocating for the severance of memories
Sever it all from my thoughts the horror you gave me
Seeking to eliminate memories of the horror inflicted by the oppressor
Sever the memory
Reiterating the need to sever memories
I will not fall victim to you again
Resisting the possibility of becoming a victim once again
Blinded with the fear searching for a new way
Blinded by fear and searching for a new path
To lay the seeds of deceit as you just fucking betray
Planting seeds of deceit and experiencing betrayal
Your actions soaked in blood
Actions of the oppressor stained with blood
Just like the doctrine that you preach every day
Comparing oppressive doctrine to daily preached beliefs
Fuck your indoctrination
Rejecting indoctrination and its detrimental impact
It destroyed all my hopes for you as i fell away away
Experiencing a decline as hopes are shattered
Mislead and forced to serve for your crooked faith
Being misled and forced to serve a corrupt faith
Bitter from your violent ways
Harboring bitterness from violent actions
Anger filled my every day
Daily life filled with anger
Rejected the notion of a god or a hell
Rejecting the concept of God or hell, relying on self
Renounced your religion ill rely upon my self
Renouncing religious beliefs and choosing self-reliance
Oppression was not the life for me
Oppression not suitable for the individual
I could never follow blindly
Refusing blind obedience, questioning authority
So what's left for us
Contemplating the aftermath of rejection
Hatred and so much bad blood
Harboring hatred and animosity
Leaving me with one choice
Having only one option left: severance from the oppressor
You must be severed
Deciding that the only recourse is to sever ties with the oppressor
