In Sufferance

歌詞

Rituals contrived to ease the mind Mysteries revealed, or are they lies? The ultimate truth remains unknown until you die Feeding the madness of uncertainty Fearful of revenge But sowing the violent seed A lifetime of transgressions Mentally tortured Self-inflicted punishment No judgement more severe A twisted course bound by fate Spiralling plunge, shrouded in fear Is there a purpose or merely destiny? Master or pawn of life's cruelties Fearful of revenge But sowing the violent seed A lifetime of transgressions Mentally tortured Self-inflicted punishment No judgement more severe The curse of life, anticipating fate Aware that one day death will come Infernal shadows cast upon our earthly shells Does life just cease or are our souls reborn? Enigma of the absolute Useless to repent What is the cost of paradise A living death of righteous lies Shackled by a mindless faith Lamenting in vain Falling deep into distress Life spent in sufferance Shattered mind, corrupted flesh Cowering in mortal fear Clinging to a fading life Futile prayer as the end draws near Body now a withered frame Fallen prey to time Final thoughts are a regret Dying without ever knowing life In sufferance
