It starts as one festering feeling

The kind that cuts from the flesh down to the soul

No way (no way) to make amends for the time behind the door

Street lights feed lies straight to the mind of the wishful wanderer

How could he give up?

No second chances to say goodbye

Wrapped in this cold, nostalgic energy

From cries of the ones who are buried

Ascend beyond

Life is ruthless and shot full of pain

Lifts you up, leaves you out in the rain, and it hurts just to know that you're not coming back again

I will miss you my friend

Memories like a slug to the brain, paint the walls that with a love that will stain the darkest of nights

Left to join with the stars, I cannot shake this off my chest

In death we grieve 'til all have transcended from this realm

In time we will meet again

Suddenly I can feel the connection between dimension ties

Open gut on the floor

Trembling down to the core

What is this?

It's been a long ride without you

I'm lost inside my own world

There's not a single day where I've feigned the acceptance, but it's a somber stroll down this road that we call life

The silence still is crawling out of my sedated sight

How can I be free?

Wrapped in this cold nostalgic energy

From cries of the ones who are buried

Ascend beyond

Life is ruthless and shot full of pain

Lifts you up, leaves you out in the rain, and it hurts just to know that you're not coming back again

I will miss you my friend

Memories like a slug to the brain, paint the walls that with a love that will stain the darkest of nights

Left to journey alone, but I can find my way back home
