Sadness, drowning me again
Sickness, crawling through the murk
I can hear the water come rushing in
My life, it feels like a disease
Sleepless, hiding from the Sun
Lifeless, fallen to the ground
It stains my soul
It leaves me cold
I've foreseen my downfall
Paint my soul
In colours of the old
Broken down, I fall
Useless, words become useless
Drowning, I face the final fall
The world is no more
It washes over me like a disease
I can't forget you
I can't be free from the memories
Down, down we go from here
There's no place better
Kill, kill me dear
I can't hear any laughter
Your shameful face swallows your soul
Kill, kill what's left of me
I can't go any further
I used to be so fucking strong
But now I have nothing
Faceless I have become
Sleepless, sleepless once again
Hiding from the Sun
It stains my soul
It leaves me cold
I've foreseen my downfall
Paint my soul
In colours of the old
Broken down, I fall
