Stuck in my head for eternity With no way out in sight Told my whole life I'm a burden Grievances fuel this fight Trudge through this empty life too vacant too cast a shadow Is this all there is too life Will I find redemption I am the man in the nightmares I am the keeper of the scythe Hold close all of your failures Let them eat you alive Zombified inside My misery is special to the one who holds my marionette Numbing pollution Of my frail mind A nightly violent awakening Plucked from the temporary relief Slip back into a state Fit for peasants Stake me to the ground Drive nails through my eyes Trudge through this empty life too vacant too cast a shadow Is this all there is too life Will I find redemption Hold close all of your failures Let them eat you alive Though emptiness clouds my eyes I'll never compromise I see through the guise I valued misery in this mortal coil Poetic lunacy you'll burn and boil You'll burn and boil You'll burn and boil You'll burn You'll burn and boil As I grasp for an absolution I must pay a fee blood washes over me Voices in my head sing of crucifixion I pledge my soul A sign of my conviction Zombified inside My misery is special to the one who holds my marionette Numbing pollution Of my frail mind Zombified inside My misery is special to the one who holds my marionette Numbing pollution Of my frail mind
