A noose hangs from a tree
Containing all my dreams
I count them on my fingers
Never reaching past three
I trace your visage in the fallen ash
Misery is so good to me
The vultures circle above
As the sky changes shade
Or is it my vision failing me?
Through the ash, I see locks of gold
But the last thing I see?
Your eyes staring back at me
The serpents uncoil from the green and bind my knees
I've never felt anything so serene as they pull me under
They pull me undеr
If I sold you my soul
Would you grant me peace?
Only in this lifе and not the next
Would you take my sorrow
And drown it in the sea
Of my sins and wrong doings?
Take it out back
And put it on it's knees
And when it begs for sentience
Kill the beast, but leave the crown
Kill the beast, but leave the crown
Nearing the end with a crumbling heart
My anguish is loud and furious
I care no more for the light of day
What's done is done, decisions can't be unmade
Even a bitter man learns to love his suffering
Designed grief greater than what fate has assigned
Yet still I cling to the roots with no way to climb
Indomitable
My sins
My wrongdoings
My sorrow
Indomitable
Containing all my dreams
I count them on my fingers
Never reaching past three
I trace your visage in the fallen ash
Misery is so good to me
The vultures circle above
As the sky changes shade
Or is it my vision failing me?
Through the ash, I see locks of gold
But the last thing I see?
Your eyes staring back at me
The serpents uncoil from the green and bind my knees
I've never felt anything so serene as they pull me under
They pull me undеr
If I sold you my soul
Would you grant me peace?
Only in this lifе and not the next
Would you take my sorrow
And drown it in the sea
Of my sins and wrong doings?
Take it out back
And put it on it's knees
And when it begs for sentience
Kill the beast, but leave the crown
Kill the beast, but leave the crown
Nearing the end with a crumbling heart
My anguish is loud and furious
I care no more for the light of day
What's done is done, decisions can't be unmade
Even a bitter man learns to love his suffering
Designed grief greater than what fate has assigned
Yet still I cling to the roots with no way to climb
Indomitable
My sins
My wrongdoings
My sorrow
Indomitable
