Artist: Rapture Album: Songs For The Withering
Lyrics
Something's quite not right Again sleep escapes me, far away You're the whisper in the back of my head Teething, serrated and smiling
Knee-deep in this hopeless wreckage A heartbreak To tear me apart Swallowed by the vast, all-consuming Demanding you here
This uncontrollable hell A lightless abode A sleepless complete black Where ghosts come to me Through every hole In each and every wall
Wish I could just sleep Wish I could explain Wish I could change the way of things Wish I would fall away
It's a slow closure A cold shape crawling behind me A storm approaching A darkness always closer I ever thought it could Can never see it coming
The world I'm in is empty Outside I think I choke Somehow I can't help thinking There is no place for me
(The noise in my head won't leave)
"All fled--all done So lift me on the pyre The feast is over And the lamps expire." [Robert e. howard (1906-1936)]
