You will find in mine the scorn and apathy
You will read my hatred as in a curs'd book
You will see yourself as I see you
It is a mirror sombre and opaque
Which protects me, which stifles me
A great ditch around the heart
Which rejects, which estranges me
There is a world in my head
A dead world where nothing lives
And it is there I am, too far,
Far to far to be rejoined
A crown of thorns is still a crown
I am a king in a kingodm of suffering
I have taken my time to reach this stage
I have taken pains to tourture myself
To descend, to descend
Into Pain, I exist
An if my brain is numbed
The thorn in my flesh
Can overcome apathy
There is glory in humiliation
A throne to be taken, a crown to win
I have no more tears,
And my smile has lost it's brilliance
I have forgotten who I was
I have killed my emotions
Crushed, empty, weary
Always standing, I am a tree
Awaiting the lightning
If eyes are the mirror of the soul You will find in mine the scorn and apathy You will read my hatred as in a curs'd book You will see yourself as I see you It is a mirror sombre and opaque Which protects me, which stifles me A great ditch around the heart Which rejects, which estranges me There is a world in my head A dead world where nothing lives And it is there I am, too far, Far to far to be rejoined A crown of thorns is still a crown I am a king in a kingodm of suffering I have taken my time to reach this stage I have taken pains to tourture myself To descend, to descend Into Pain, I exist An if my brain is numbed The thorn in my flesh Can overcome apathy There is glory in humiliation A throne to be taken, a crown to win I have no more tears, And my smile has lost it's brilliance I have forgotten who I was I have killed my emotions Crushed, empty, weary Always standing, I am a tree Awaiting the lightning Explain Request ×
