The Pit & The Pendulum

Forlorn
Years of toil that never pay
As the colors all fade to grey
In the wake of sailed yesterdays
Morose
Plucked again from false fantasy
Life's unsatisfactory
Only free in fleeting dreams
"Life was simple, quiet, richly pleasurable
and then the darkness began to fall"
Well-intentioned but he died
A loathing seether, crippled inside
Shattered dreams had run dry
He let them down bled well

Apathy

I'm trapped in agony
Crushed between two slabs
No emotion crosses me
Let me, just once, feel sad
It doesn't even hurt
To write my own goodbyes
I tried for what it's worth
But I've put in all my time
When will serenity come?
When will I feel again?
What have I become
Just a shell of a man?
No resolution
No coming home again
No restitution
No light comin round the bend
No!
When will serenity come?
(When will eternity call?)
When will I feel again?
(Sweet afterlife I've chosen)
What have I become
(My reckoning has begun)
Just a shell of a man?
(I take this life in my hands)

Behold My Pain

Behold my pain
You'll feel the same
Gaze at your face in the mirror
Every day death ambles nearer
Wring out a smile
This choice is final
I reap my suffering
Witness the joyous end I bring

Iridescent legacy
A cache of mournful memories
Time for your yearly encore
I'll hear your ghost sing once more
Like it was only yesterday
No tomorrow with the end in sight
Eye of ember makes its final strike
Hindsight bathes a dour sky tonight
Feel the absence of his burning blaze
And the call of all who've met the grave
In the heart of all your dying days
The hell of your posthumous years
Burns beneath life's cracked veneer
The void seems a reprieve
I pray that when I leave
I'll see you there
See you there
Again
No tomorrow with the end in sight
Eye of ember makes its final strike
Hindsight bathes a dour sky tonight
Feel the absence of his burning blaze
And the call of all who've met the grave
In the heart of all your dying days
Have faith your suffering is destined to decrease
We've only precious moments before we are deceased
