The Wreckage of My Flesh
Embracing Desolation: Unveiling the Profound Depths of My Dying Bride's Melancholy
Lyrics
Loathsome I've become
Feeling intense disgust, I have transformed into something repulsive.
A creature so undone
Becoming a creature that is completely broken and defeated.
Wretched and Broken
Feeling miserable and shattered.
Cannot find my faith
Unable to find my belief or trust in anything.
Any God will do
Any deity will suffice; I am desperate for solace.
Nothing said is new
Expressions and words spoken are not original or groundbreaking.
Nothing said is true
No statement made holds inherent truth.
Fly away my hope
My hope is diminishing; I want to escape from my current state.
The embrace of shade holds me dear
The comforting darkness surrounds me warmly.
Eats me away
The darkness consumes and erodes me.
Loose the dogs of disgrace upon me
Release the forces of shame upon me.
I have no faith
I lack faith or belief in anything.
Raise the poor outcast I have become
Raise up the rejected and despised person I have become.
I am undone
I am completely destroyed and broken.
Calm is the air,
The atmosphere is quiet and undisturbed.
Still is the sea
The sea is calm and tranquil.
The Valley of death keeps calling me
The inevitable approach of death keeps beckoning me.
Rest my eyes from the world
I choose to close my eyes to the world.
This dying place, it's so absurd
This dying place seems absurd and senseless.
Oh Christ above, whom I love
An expression of love and longing for Christ above.
Lost to me.
Christ, whom I love, feels lost to me.
My snow white dove
Referring to a beloved person as a pure, innocent dove.
Make this day like the night
Wishing for the current day to resemble the obscurity of night.
Songs of darkness, and Words of light
Engaging with both dark and light aspects through music and words.
Pulling down my heart
A metaphorical expression of profound sadness pulling at the heart.
I won't forget my lovers heart
Committing to remember the heart of a loved one.
With utter loathing and scorn
Feeling intense hatred and disdain, as if born from it.
I was somehow born
Born into a state of decay and darkness.
Strewn in black decay
Lying in a state of deterioration, covered in darkness.
None shall I obey
Refusing to obey or submit to anyone or anything.
The Wreckage of My Flesh
Describing the ruins and devastation of one's own body.
The nakedness of my death
Expressing the vulnerability and exposure in facing death.
