Lyrics Cipher - Nailed To Obscurity

Cipher

My lids seem to be open
But I can’t feel a face
Or a body beneath my eyes
Still my emotions are torn
Between repentance, temper, and sorrow
Alone in a desert of despair
Familiar faces surrounded by nameless ones
I’m no part of the events
Different life, vacant, counterfeit
Like a ghost levitating above the scene
Able to see, unable to be seen
I’m not part of the events
Different life, vacant, counterfeit
Erased, I’ve never been born
Unable to make my mistakes
As the abyss took me
As my doubts bear me down
Deleted, misremembered
Letters building words
Altered, rephrased tale
My name does not appear
These pages were deleted
All that’s left is bleak and drear
Footprints in the ground
Missing pair of feet
The road they show, hard as before
A sight I can’t ignore
Erased, not a twist of fate
An unbreakable curse
Trapped in a loop
Everything happens as foretold
Cycle of pain
Persistent, ongoing
I am eliminated
My existence obliterated
But still I can see
Without me, it’s still the same
All the emotions are torn
Between repentance, temper, and sorrow
The pitiless desert of despair
