II. Eclipse
Sleep Waker * Track #3 On Don’t Look at the Moon
II. Eclipse Lyrics
I am awake, but somehow frozen
No sound seeps from these lungs
Trapped inside a prison made of bones
I've seen this place before
Night after night in a cold sweat
A monolithic figure looms inside my consciousness
Dragged below, deeper than I have ever known
The veil is lifted but the weight remains unbearable
I refuse to let this consume me
I fucking want out
I want to go back to the moment laid in time where it all went dark
Obscured imagery of a slate once so clean
When does the light switch on?
Knowing the end is all too close

A descendent of endless anguish
My fate decided upon arrival
I suffer
Eternal

Run for the light but it keeps away from me
Betrayed by fear
I am my own worst nightmare
Desolation to the savior I saw in me
Drag me below
Oh
I'm in hell
Forever lost in myself
