[Lyric] Regret (Cemeterium)

True as the shadow, it follows
The lingering stench of rottenness
Mercury deposits of the past
Poisoned blood down to us passed

Grief
Decline

The breath of sorrow has yet to expel from our lungs
We will never breathe fully
The bleak remnants of what we once were
Cannot break the curse of what we will become

Under skies long past an eidolon exists
Creating an alliance between cosmos and earth
It is us who consumes it, and bring forth
This present we witness, a past forgotten controlling all we are

Devoid of virtue, with no will to go on
The expanse of time severed long ago
All tether to what we could have been
Grief
Decline
Regret

All that remains
The end is our task
To complete the cycle
Yet still never return
To once was

I can no longer remember
