Open the door to the cellar I'm greeted by a weary face The look in his eyes Show no sign of satisfaction In the things I became I only wish he knew That I lay awake Gasping for some reprieve I always try to forget But this place always finds its way back to me I never meant to return When I left you in this empty fucking house I never wanted To gaze upon all the things that I've If I could I would bury you beneath the ashes With the rest of my humanity We were thrust in opposing existence I was meant for life And you were always meant to die The bitter refusal To taste the poison that is mortality I carry no burden Save for the sight of you Are we forever bonded by this path Is it in death that we always find our end Our only purpose Was to uphold a balance imperfect Repeat it all again and again Sever the tether that holds me here Sever the cancer of this rotting limb That's eating away at my skin Oh, hideous deformity I do not wish to speak your name If only there was a way to release you from This life of perdition I would cut your throat And watch the canvas bleed upon the floor Cut your throat And release me from this life of perdition I never meant to return When I left you in this empty fucking house I only wanted solace from the memories That I cannot erase You are a stain upon the holy body A false stroke Upon the face of death You are a dismal reminder of the misery That awaits me at the end What awaits you at the end The cellar door creeped open again The gaze, it burrowed through From the corner of the room Where it's always laid stagnant I always knew you'd return No path can lead you from the truth that you've learned Like a disease You waste away your fragile mortality Why can't you look at me Gaze upon your failures And embrace the hell that you've wrought You carry no burden Now you must gaze upon The void is created in the bowels of anguish The soul is consumed by what the eyes behold The void is created in the bowels of anguish Swallow the canvas and consume me whole
