Down
Echoes of Desolation: Grieving Room's Poignant Reflections
Lyrics
I long for a day
I yearn for a future day
When all the heartache is ripped away
When all the emotional pain is forcefully removed
Keep me scared, keep me sick
Keep me anxious, keep me unwell
You'll always have something to say
You will always have something to express
There's gotta be more to this
There must be more to life than this
There has to be an end in sight
There has to be a visible conclusion
Time burned away
Time has passed without progress
No fucking light
No hope or illumination
Living as livestock
Existing like cattle
Worn to the bone
Worn out to the point of exhaustion
Deeper and deeper
Going deeper and deeper into despair
Hole after hole
Encountering one hardship after another
Waste of the flesh
Being a waste of physical existence
Waste of the soul
Being a waste of spiritual essence
Deaf ears
Ignored pleas and indifferent gazes
And cold stares
And cold, unfeeling looks
All familiar
All too familiar
All the same
All identical
Daily grind
The daily struggle
A delicate time
A fragile period
Ends meet is just
Making ends meet is slowly slipping away
Inching away
It tastes bitter sweet
It tastes both unpleasant and sweet
Finding comfort in a mass grave
Finding solace in a collective grave
Sunset, sunrise
Sunset and sunrise
The light never pierces my eyes
The light never penetrates my eyes
This cloud above my head can only hold so much
A metaphorical cloud above my head can only endure so much
Left to dry by men of forked tongues, I crave the rain, the cold release
Abandoned by deceitful individuals, I crave the cleansing rain, the liberating cold
I am lost can't keep my feet on the ground
I am adrift, unable to stay grounded
A slave to pain, I need the weight to hold me down
A servant to suffering, I need the burden to anchor me
