The Utter End

A succession of broken vows

Words are worthless now

Suffocating existence tames

Me to the very end

Liberation from this mortal shell

A cage that's made out of remorse

Unending chapters of this misery

Crafted with elegant self-loathing

A stranger to freedom

Outrageous demeanor

I yearn for the circle to shut

I yearn for salvation

Make me disappear

Let me lay to rest

Let me fall asleep

Meet my utter end

Shadows dancing on the walls

To the tune that precedes my destruction

The melody that unveils my creation

To the woes cultivated by time

The soothing voice that seduces

Playing the role of my goddess

Which I worship relentlessly

Stench roams free

Putrid sins

The shadows are laughing

As they witness the birth of decay

All reason is lost at this point

Insanity welcomes its prey

The spectacle is far from over

As I feel the touch of the goddess

Which surrounds me with a cold embrace

Just to lead this lamb to the slaughter

Sacrificial rites

Let the flames consume

A puppet to the very end

I'm hanging by a thread

Dancing tirelessly against my will

I'm fading into dimming lights (Dimming lights)

As the crowd begins to shy away from me

They cower in fear


[Instrumental Break]

Self-indulgent, but always laconic

Screaming to be seen, but never to be heard

Severed heads will roll tonight

As I delve into this liquid death

Let the voices scream this melody

The symphony for my utter end

When I make my cross through this river

I'll make sure that my resolve won't falter

When I lay bare in this cradle of ashes

I'll let my heart rest at ease this time

I worn my legs out to exhaustion

My eyes will soon be shut tight

The dawn will bathe my tired skin

And the dusk will extirpate this blight


[Instrumental Break]

A puppet to the very end

I'm hanging by a thread

Dancing tirelessly against my will

I'm fading into dimming lights (Dimming lights)

As the crowd begins to shy away from me

They cower in fear

A puppet to the very end

I'm hanging by a thread

Dancing tirelessly against my will

I'm fading into dimming lights (Dimming lights)

As the crowd begins to shy away from me

They cower in fear
