lyrics

I lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling
Hands are tied and unable to move
And my throat is dried out
From all the shouts I could never let out

I used to walk on this path
Among the thorns and through the spikes
Until both heaven and earth
Turned black and merged together

The same sound rings in my ears
Everytime the needles pierce my skin
In a bloody hourglass
They measured my purpose to live

The thunder strikes
And souls ignite
Swirling in final wishes

Another strike
And flame dies out
Ashes will pass on its will

Shockwave breaks my bones and skin
In the roaring hurricane
Crimson red, soaked in the blood of sacrifice

It's an offering~ to fate
As the purpose starts to fade
Along with blurred paths I left behind

I look at my hands with a blurry stare
I can see they're trembling with immense pain
I feel all my darkness leaking out from my heart
It seems that I'm back again at the start

Their words are before my eyes
My ears are shut, I don't want to hear
distorted and spoiled with my shame

I want to scream, but nobody can hear
Otherwise, it will be even worse again
I clench my teeth and cover my tears
I wake up, unwillingly facing another day

The blade that has
Impaled my hands
Dripping with blood and confusion

With frozen eyes
I'll just ask "why?"
Before I crumble to sleep

Sunset marked my soul with scars
And it made it a sacrifice
To the past, to non-existant future

I could never fight them back
I could never stand on my own
If I would, they'd just cut my legs off

Just a mundane gift I was
To forgiving oblivion
Speaking with a soul I stole right before I died

I look through the hole in my eyes
Once again in a fake disguise
Never could truly show who I am
