Solastalgia

Feast your eyes on our only future
Neglected, faded and falling apart
Watching the world you know disintegrate
Catch fire, situation already dire
Consequences now fulfilled from two centuries past
Worlds behind
In the rearview reflects a clear view of tomorrow
Veiled, draped in sorrow
Jailed, unshaped and hollow

Old world has vanished
Expired
To our minds we are banished
Inside
Forever

This is our world now
Trapped in the self with no way out

What the fuck did we do?
What the fuck did we think we could prove?

Life is torture
Life is torture
Life is torture
The slowest suffering

We had our hopes
We fashioned our ropes
From which we now swing in the breeze
They didn't work
We went berserk
Trying in vain just to be put at ease

The winds of solastalgia
Blowing the embers of past transgressions
Burning our faces
Leaving a charred world
Devoid of hope
The greatest depression

And our dishonorable discharge
Forever recorded
In our DNA we left behind
For we discarded
That which reminds

Nigh
The end of hope
The solastalgia
Evil nostalgia
Of better times
The end of hope
Lament together
Despair forever
Lose our minds
The end of hope
The solastalgia
Evil nostalgia
Of better times
The end of hope
Lament together
Despair forever
Lose our minds
