Ethereal Reflections: Contemplating Existence in Disaster Rex's 'IX'
Lyrics
Recollection in god
Reflecting on memories or experiences associated with a divine presence
Divine opposer
Someone opposing divine forces
Framed in tar
Trapped or confined in a dark, sticky substance
Escape this horizon in this amorphous feeling
Desiring to escape a limit or boundary with a shapeless emotion
Seeded in lies
Rooted or embedded in falsehoods
I've embezzled your sentence
Taking possession of and altering the meaning of your judgment
Inhospitable ruins of a man
Existing in the harsh remains of a person
I've been chasing whispers in your soul's appetite
Pursuing indistinct sounds related to the desires of your soul
Mispronounced and misfortuned
Incorrectly spoken and burdened by misfortune
I'm the Harbinger your soul's demise
Portraying oneself as a harbinger of the destruction of your soul
Where can I quiesce this ethereal silence?
Searching for a place to find peace in a silent, otherworldly realm
My fields are barren for weary rusted eyes
Experiencing a desolate landscape with tired and corroded eyes
I've watched the leaves whiter and fade in the vacuum of the choices that echos in me
Observing the impact of choices resonating within, leading to fading vitality
Eternal vigil of a scoured denial in the chaos that rises from my defeat
Enduring a constant watch over a denied reality amid chaotic defeat
Sons of decay in An incestuous nightmare sharing the flesh sundered in a fray
Describing a nightmarish scenario where decayed offspring share a torn flesh
As your necessity flees from the darkness, my eyes are condemned to stay awake
As your necessity departs from darkness, my eyes are condemned to vigilance
The walls are closing in
Feeling the confinement and pressure of surrounding walls
The walls are part of me
Identifying oneself as interconnected with the enclosing walls
Over hazed mountains of pride
Referring to overcoming challenges symbolized as hazy mountains of pride
I swallowed your punishment
Having accepted and internalized a punishment
Say that you cannot wash the stains
Acknowledging the permanence of stains that cannot be washed away
Say that you can't forget how it feels
Acknowledging the enduring memory of how an experience feels
Clawing my way through your absence
Struggling persistently through the void created by your absence
Your words will hunt my validity
Aware that your words will constantly challenge and question my validity
In every attempt to cast a light on the shadow that I used to be
Attempting to bring light to the shadowy past and identity
I've emptied this suicidal smile on those who tried to believe
Expressing a sense of emptiness and despair, affecting those who believed
