Lyrics Barren - Assemblage 23

Barren

Enough
I’ve taken all I can take
My heart is arid
My soul is barren
Devoid
Of function and of form
I feel so empty
An ache inside of me
Unrestrained and unrelenting
Emotions flood and then subside
The days decay like fading echoes
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
Sustain
A will to carry on
A silent burden
A voyage uncertain
Detached
From reason and desire
Go through the motions
With false devotion
Unrestrained and unrelenting
Emotions flood and then subside
The days decay like fading echoes
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
Too much
It’s more than I can bear
Feels like I’m breaking
Frightened and shaking
I stand
On faltering belief
The cracks are forming
A muted warning
Unrestrained and unrelenting
Emotions flood and then subside
The days decay like fading echoes
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
