Lyrics
The Prolonging
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.
As you descend, I shall rise
Your demise shall be my conception
Your failure shall be my triumph
I shall feed from your decay
Your despair shall give me strength
As you degenerate I shall prosper
Your misfortune shall make me jubilant
As you suffocate, I shall breathe
Repressed, your own mortality
Drunk of pitiful delusion
I shall be your parasite
Born of your own imbecility
I shall tie your mortal limbs
I shall invade your thoughts
I shall belittle your aspirations
I shall obliterate your hope
I shall break your will
I shall devour your flesh
As you perish, I shall live
I shall live
You shall drown in my contempt
Drained of all life and emotion
I shall be your eternal foe
I shall expose for ridicule
Your designs for your salvation
Liar!
I shall feast on your misfortune
I shall remember all your lies
Truth has never been of essence
As you devised your fallacies
Liar!
As you deteriorate
I shall create my kingdom
As you sink into waves of darkness
I shall find my brightest light
As you perish, I shall live
