Fragments of Grey Matter
Decaying Consciousness: Unraveling the Dark Depths of 'Fragments of Grey Matter'
Lyrics
My righteous self decadence it breeds forth suffering of a new kind
Self-indulgent behavior leads to a new form of suffering.
An event of unfathomable torture thrust upon me
An unimaginable torment is forced upon the speaker.
Dermis separating at the atom
The skin is separating at the atomic level.
Peeling back to the nape of the neck
Peeling back skin to the base of the neck.
Continues to unzip my shell
The process of shedding the speaker's outer layer continues.
I find comfort in that I can't feel
Finding solace in the inability to feel.
The fissures of my skull disintegrate
The cracks in the skull disintegrate.
Cerebellum affected first disables my sense of balance
The cerebellum is affected, disrupting the sense of balance.
Occipital lobe shredded to render me completely blind
The occipital lobe is destroyed, causing total blindness.
Parietal lobes replaced with a necrotic gel
Parietal lobes are replaced with necrotic gel.
Viciously spinning internal abyss
An internal abyss spins violently.
No sight to my eyes
No visual perception remains.
Sensations amiss
Lack of sensory experiences.
Grasping at air to hold myself still
Desperation to hold oneself still without reference points.
My martyrs purpose was not to kill
The purpose of the speaker's suffering was not to cause death.
I hear language, that I don't understand
Hearing incomprehensible language.
I feel pain, that I can't understand
Feeling pain that is beyond understanding.
I hear language, that I don't understand
Repetition of hearing incomprehensible language.
I feel pain, that I can't understand
Repetition of feeling pain beyond understanding.
Am but a spiraling consciousness
The speaker is a consciousness spiraling in a lifeless body.
In a corpse made senseless
Existing solely for the purpose of torture.
Exist here only for torturing
The speaker's consciousness is tormenting.
Fragments of grey matter rotting away
Fragments of brain matter are decaying.
My brain stem decays into nothing but dust
The brain stem is deteriorating into dust.
