Handbook for the Recently Deceased |
| When I surrendered |
| Became what I am not |
| A false facade of splendor |
| Led me here to rot |
| On your back you showed what you were worth |
| And that lie spoke a thousand words |
| Where is your righteousness? |
| Just point your finger backwards |
| Where is the splendor and grace I had known? |
| In light of this deception |
| I fear this filth is now my home |
| I have abandoned all hope |
| Because only the dead don’t lie |
| With the beast of our memories |
| We are just wasting time |
| I have abandoned all hope |
| Because only the dead don’t lie |
| With the beast of our memories |
| We are just wasting time |
| Souls torn, ravens flap and faith had left forever |
| Before me now is anguish for beauty tethered |
| There is only evil inside all this pain |
| One shroud of remembrance will always bear this stain |
| And though I beg forgiveness for what I became |
| I never knew why beauty was in chains |
| Are there no reasons or even words at least? |
| Our time is out of season |
| It’s buried with the recently deceased |
| I have abandoned all hope |
| We are just wasting time |
| I have abandoned all hope |
| Because only the dead don’t lie |
| With the beast of our memories |
| We are just wasting time |
| I have abandoned all hope |
| Because only the dead don’t lie |
| With the beast of our memories |
| We are just wasting time |
