Lyrics Rot - Aethere

Rot

Why do I feel the thing that will someday kill me
Makes me feel more alive than most
I feel odd/off
I don’t remember the last time I got rest
Content in solitude
Longing for company
An overwhelming feeling of something to say but nothing when pen meets paper
The process of being killed/The process of killing onesself
Somber thoughts
Suffocating on words unsaid
I can’t seem to get away
I can’t seem to stray
From the voices coming from inside my head
I’ll just rot… Alone in silence
I’ll just rot… It never stops
I’ll rot…
I’ll rot…
I’ll rot…
I’ll rot…
Open up
Breathe in quickly
Sharp exhale
Hurry up, hurry up
Stop/silence
I’m sorry I can’t find the words to say
Hanging from that rope
I can see you sway
I want to know what went through your head
I don’t know if I was meant to end the same way;
dead
I know it’s wrong but we share the same name
Who is to say we can’t share the same fate
Ungrateful
I don’t have any real issues other than the ones in my head
I have no right to think I’d be better off dead
But here I am alone
Born on the left side of the throne
With a tongue that strikes the heart
Allows the poison to seep in and tear apart
Let me rot
