Once in the Hole
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.
Despair burns me, silent
Night leaves all dormant
My light fades down in dusk
The eyes bleed, as I cease
Cold are these haunting walls
This dark frost, infinity of night
Silence and fears again
Gone insane
Never lived, never felt
Only grief
In a vault where silence reigns
Will resound a pounding drone
For the hope of precious dawn
Felt down for a single sin
Oration, tears and shades
Shrouding me
Crawling in this hole, in reek and stench
