Gallows

I saw myself a slave
Caught Dead
Caught dead I waste away
Breathing Dead
(I would)
Pull apart each damned thread

Claim me from this pain
This wasn't enough
To be purged of life
(Taken)
Taken from this drowning plain

My beating heart still bleeds
Flowing, Hateful Mass
Unfinished Wounded Mess

Exposed, Flesh and mind

Crucified and no longer full of fear
If only I could have ran

I called upon the crows to pick me clean

Find me dead within the trees
I wouldn't ask for anything of lesser dignity

Each season will cradle Me to the void
Away from this wretched being
Fading from
This wretched reality

The Grey and then the rain
The final portrait and the unfathomable pain

Engrave my name on the forgotten pendulum
Have a taste of it all means in the end

At last
The arbiter speaks

(I know)
That I will arrive
And when I look into the mirror

(I fell below)
And he spoke

I hope to see no man deprived
Because the mirror never lies

At last I know
I know
I fell below
(I fell below)
