Crux

Confined
A prisoner of the times
The decades will pass, leaving only you behind
Alone now with every taxing mistake
(Mistake)
Weighed down, taste the flavor of disdain
Self-hatred grows
(That void)
Nervous, he knows
(Inside)
Mind on the brink of insanity

There's a prison of the chest
Where the lifeblood drains but organs remain
Hollowed, held together by the wind-burned sinew, the skeleton shakes
Inverness green envy through the eyes of the prisoner
Every day
Those who are free do not have the right to be so careless
So carefree

I don't know whether I can make it another day
Dragged down constantly
Weight of the world
I don't know long that I have left to live
But growing desperate to see a sign for what is is

Rain down, this eternal weather
In this sunless summer
The black sky is so opaque
Like glass, I am shattering
Each and every day
(In this sunless summer)
The shards glisten red

Breaking out of my old prison
Re-enter the world I haven't seen for so long
Stored up a hunger for a violent return
So here's the very essence of my furor
Collect my strength and I will bring your end

How can you just stand to let them rot?
The imprisoned ones
How can you just stand to let them rot?
The imprisoned ones
