Lyrics
Shade
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.
So where are you now?
Hiding behind another masquerade
Your deception stripped you of all you ever loved
You lie awake at night afraid to even dream
Cos when you close your eyes, all you see is me
There's no disguising your true nature
You're nothing but a fucking traitor
Suffer bitch!
Drown in waters of depression
Your pain is purification
This hatred's building up
Take one last look above
The pressure's all too much
Say goodbye to all that you love
You know I bore you no ill will
And that you brought this upon yourself
You know I meant you no harm at all
But now I'll bring you hell
What have you become?
You're fading
What have you become?
You're nothing
I will rise up to tear you down
And no-one will stand in my way
I will bring you to your knees
Our dreams were one and the same
But no more
No more!
This is nothing but a waste of emotion
You are nothing but an insect I stamp on
Vindication through an onslaught of violence
Living manifestation of nightmares
