What night never abandoned

In shallow darkness dwell

The evidence in pools of black

Light cannot penetrate, light cannot penetrate



Have you come for my forgiveness

There's nothing left to give

No response to your repentance

This empty me



Lifted from the living days

To be bent right out of shape

Let blades and satisfiers

Cut and lick these wounds

In reversal of repentance

This bastard son of lies

To bring meaning to it all, meaning to it all



Have you come for my forgiveness

There's nothing left to give

No response to your repentance

This empty me



Take now from this body

A coward's heart

And a soul beyond repair

Empty me



Between insecurity and reason

Self deprecation as a means to the end

Out of reach but never closer

A cure that searches for the cause

Cause for chaos



Have you come for my forgiveness

There's nothing left to give

No response to your repentance

This empty me



Drawn from memories the fragments linger

On ages of thought and seconds of sleep

What is it here that tempts the night

To stab the day and kill the light
