Scorn Callously discarded Into the river of Acheron Submerged beyond ascension Breaking through the surface tension Eyes wide open to the bottom of this flowing casket Carried by the currents of sin Wishful thinking in the back of my mind But only sorrow-filled hatred will bind My soul to the blackness of this gaping void Gasp until my lungs are filled Meeting my end, a life distilled Not a single moment has ever been fulfilled Belittled by those who stepped away Mocked by those who created my fate Molded by the fires of desire & lust I was forged to be dismantled into dust So I will fade away as the winds of change Flow at will, no cadence to still Charon takes me to the caverns of the living dead Pay the toll, Down below He cares not for the end of my story Ore in tow into a blaze of glory If I cannot bend the will of heaven, I shall move to hell Blood means nothing in this mortal game The hand you're dealt is not to blame Scornful Bound by fire Scornful Bound by desire Charon takes me to the caverns of the living dead Pay the toll, Down below He cares not for the end of my story Ore in tow into a blaze of glory If I cannot bend the will of heaven, I shall move to hell Blood means nothing in this mortal game The hand you're dealt is not to blame Callously discarded Into the river of Acheron Submerged beyond ascension Breaking through the surface tension
