Lyrics
The dread of death encroaches on my mind
The fear of death is taking hold of my thoughts.
A freezing sweat is dripping down my spine
I'm experiencing a chilling anxiety that causes a physical reaction.
This prison cell creates a lasting bind
A metaphorical prison cell is creating a lasting sense of confinement.
It’s my own consciousness that keeps all hope confined
My own awareness and consciousness are suppressing any hope.
The moments before sleep haunting a child’s mind
The moments just before sleep are filled with unsettling thoughts, particularly for a child.
Questions about life, death, parasitic
Reflecting on life, death, and parasitic aspects.
Digging deeper and deeper still, evoking panic never before known
Deep exploration leads to a panic previously unknown.
Anxiety is born
Anxiety is born as a result of this introspection.
Living in fear this is despair
Living in fear becomes synonymous with despair.
By my own nature I seek out a savior
Driven by my nature, I seek a savior.
Why should I care so deeply?
Questioning the depth of my caring and emotional investment.
Should approaching death be so crippling?
Wondering if the approach of death should be so paralyzing.
For if there's no escaping
Considering the absence of escape.
My life is mine to live
A declaration that my life is mine to live.
Controlling my own death
Expressing the desire to control the circumstances of my own death.
To free me from this hell
Seeking liberation from the perceived hell of existence.
When hell is a life that is lived in fear
Defining hell as a life lived in constant fear.
Too afraid of mortality
Acknowledging a profound fear of mortality.
This is barely a reality
Suggesting that this fear may not be a true reality.
Never no never again
A vow to never lose sleep over insurmountable challenges.
Will I lose sleep over that which i cannot defeat
Determining not to be troubled by unbeatable obstacles.
Focus my mind; surrender to my ignorance
Focusing the mind and accepting ignorance.
There's only time; our only value and expense
Time is emphasized as our only valuable and expendable asset.
Focus my mind; surrender to my ignorance
Reiterating the need to focus the mind and embrace ignorance.
There's only time; our only value and expense
Reiterating the importance of time as our sole value and expense.
Haunted nightmare dreams
Experiencing haunting nightmares and dreams.
Keep on gripping tighter with its teeth
The nightmares intensify their grip, causing distress.
Wake me from this dream to find
Wishing to be awakened from the distressing dream, only to find death confronting.
Death staring back at me
A visual manifestation of death is encountered upon waking.
Living in fear this is despair
Living in fear continues to be synonymous with despair.
By my own nature I seek out a savior
Driven by inherent nature, seeking salvation persists.
Why should I care so deeply?
Questioning the depth of emotional investment and caring.
Should approaching death be so crippling?
Reflecting on whether the approach of death should be so paralyzing.
For if there's no escaping
Considering the absence of escape from this existential dilemma.
My life is mine to live
Reaffirming the assertion that my life is mine to live.
Controlling my own death
Expressing the desire to control the circumstances of my own death.
To free me from this hell
Seeking liberation from the perceived hell of existence.
When hell is a life that is lived in fear
Defining hell as a life lived in constant fear.
Too afraid of mortality
Acknowledging a profound fear of mortality.
This is barely a reality

Never no never again
A firm commitment to never lose sleep over insurmountable challenges.
Will I lose sleep over that which i cannot defeat
Determined not to be troubled by unbeatable obstacles.
Never no never again
A repeat of the commitment to never lose sleep over insurmountable challenges.
Will I lose sleep over that which i cannot defeat
Reiterating the determination not to be troubled by unbeatable obstacles.
