Lyrics
The Cause
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
In the far city of madness
Desperately seeking for quite and calm safe house Nothing but dire ruins
Am I lost in the darkened fallen city's veins?
I thought I was an armored saint
I thought I could help them all
The gate to bliss sealed by demons
The seal from memories I recall
The causeless blood on my hands
Nameless feeling burns my soul, cursed and damned heart
Is a mirror what it shows,
Is a misery or I am the cause in the city's veins
Brings all memories back
Which I've just left behind
Grinning demons on every corner
Looking through me to see my past
