The dryfire, the heaving
The fuse blew, elusive death
My mind is frayed
I've lived a hundred lifetimes
All I wish for is the embrace of death
This midas touch that is my curse
I pursued it maniacally
Now my malediction
I wish for peace but it escapes me

Centuries have passed
I tampered with unspoken reagents
In search of immortality
I never had I imagined the implications
Of my rеsearch, my obsession blinded mе

Soon as I had carried out the tests
Unbeknownst to me
It carried greater power
Than what I had foreseen
My undoing in the making

I long for slumber!


I can not find peace, even if I try to kill myself
The hex misdirects my efforts into failure, I have no power
The prospect of eternity alive now dawns on me
No matter how hard I try I can not find tranquility

One mind
Bondaged
Imprisoned
Calsified confinement
Deathless
Tortured
Immortal


All I've known is dead and buried
I've witnessed decay as if before my eyes
As time goes by I comprehend my destiny
To walk this earth as nothing can ever kill me
Eternity is spent alone, encapsulated by my body
My mind is overloaded, my flesh is corroded

I have cursed myself!


My skin rejuvenates, my youth is perserved
Albeit old, and tired of living
This world is my hell, it perserves my mortality
I long for sound repose, but I can never have it

I can not find peace, even if I try to kill myself
The hex misdirects my efforts into failure, I have no power
The prospect of eternity alive now dawns on me
No matter how hard I try I can not find tranquility

One mind
Bondaged
Imprisoned
Calsified confinement
Deathless
Tortured
Immortal

The dryfire, the heaving
The fuse blew, elusive death
My mind is frayed
I've lived a hundred lifetimes
All I wish for is the embrace of death
This midas touch that is my curse
I pursued it maniacally
Now my malediction
I wish for peace but it escapes me
Centuries have passed
I tampered with unspoken reagents
In search of immortality
Never had I imagined the implications
Of my research, my obsession blinded me

Soon as I had carried out the tests
Unbeknownst to me
It carried greater power
Than what I had foreseen
My undoing in the making


I can not find peace, even if I try to kill myself
The hex misdirects my efforts into failiure, I have no power
The prospect of eternity alive now dawns on me
No matter how hard I try I can not find tranquility
