Slow burn, this fire's almost out
Embers cast shadows all around
Almost dark, shadows all-encompassing
Will swallow me
No resolve as far as I can see
A burdened soul; carry it away
Seep it; hasten through my veins
Quell the voices that remain
Oh, come to me: soften my disdain
Oh, comfort me
In the dark, all the noise inside my head
Keeps me awake
No resolve, as far as I can see
A burdened soul: carry it away from me
My thoughts drift in, aimless
Like abandoned ships
Endless winters, searching for the sun
Like unmanned vessels, never to be found
Thoughts like vultures, circling around
To tear deep into, until nothing else remains
Distrait, I'm lost at sea
Sinking, so far beneath
Nearing an endless sleep
In a violent repose
