This Glorious Nightmare

Divine intoxication spills out the bores
A self diluting fix that craves all the more
Destructive seasoned vet, full glass of sting
A bittersweet triumph that weighs in each day

Obsession, my falsest friend
Moderation, a fantasy that I can't win
Devastation, a hardship loss
Demanding, the pain of wasted years

Lift me up
Tear me down
Will I last through this glorious nightmare
Lift me up
Tear me down
Will I last through this glorious nightmare
Lift me up
Tear me down
Will I last through this glorious nightmare
Lift me up
Tear me down
Will I last through this glorious nightmare
Lift me up
Tear me down
Will I last through this glorious nightmare

Collapse all that sacred, prey on the weak
Slow painful suicide that steals from each man
Hells fire soon returns to rape the well
Prolific doom machine that hears our words

I'm fighting the will to live
With countless persuasions
I'm fighting the will to live
The endless temptations
The endless temptations
Its lifeless grip
That haunts us all
That haunts us all

Pulling from every direction
Its lifeless grip grabs hold
Yearning is now my dissension
Its lifeless grip grabs hold

Lift me up
Tear me down
Will I last through this glorious nightmare
Lift me up
Tear me down
Will I last through this glorious nightmare
Lift me up
Tear me down
Will I last through this glorious nightmare
Lift me up
Tear me down
Will I last through this glorious nightmare

Lift me up
Tear me down
Will I last through this glorious nightmare
Lift me up
Tear me down
Will I last through this glorious nightmare
Tear me down
Tear me down
Tear me down
