Of Roaches And Shades...

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.

Smoke drifts from my lips

As words are hard to find.

In my vaporous memories,

I see the daylight's torn

Gazing at nothing,

I hear the roaches cross the floor,

Creeping around me, they celebrate my agony

Waiting as the vultures in the sunlight.

One more injection,

Before my angel calls me back

And reminds me my fate.

But what is the point to believe

In such a celestial creature,

When I am nothing else but a shade?

In a glimpse of an eye I admire the beauty

Of my pathetic reflection in the dusty mirror.

I behold the void, my emptiness, the hollow shape of my futility.

When I face my life, I feel the cold of my distress,

My distress...

Blackness surrounds me, in between the grey.

No hope, no light, no life in the blue veins...

Now I hear them coming,

The roaches and the shades

They feel my warmth...

And crawl to my bare feet

To suck the last drops of my essence.

Nobody's listening, so I talk to myself

Trying to find out the light

I lost all contempt so very long ago,

Dreams inside never die...

I walk alone, no one beside me,

It is never as simple as black or white.

I should have known, no one will find me

As long as I stay in this shade of grey.

But do I really want to escape?

But do I really want to escape?

Dry tears are pouring down on my skin

Carving the letters of the last word...

Solitude...My name!!!

Dying in a ray of moon,

Laying on a bed of hatred

Sinking in a sea of madness,

Drowning in a nihilistic dismay.

Falling, and falling again

Like the body of the man hanged at the tree of his miserable life.

Breathing the lies of mankind, the message of the blinds

The apocalypse is so near

I can even smell their fears, The rope is so tight

My hopes, black as night,

I know there will be no more fight.

Free me...

You witness my fall and you laugh.

And I stay lying in this room

The Jaded Bottle in my hand, so empty...

I feel the roaches on my flesh...

Their path, my last caress

The pills are my last friends,

No shade above my end.

My life is of no use.
