Lyrics Perfecting the Void - Solution .45

Perfecting the Void

When built the damage done
The all-absorbing eye
With ball and chain
Against the grain
Where lost tomorrows die
Feeding storm
Yet the walls still stand
Changing form
King of nothing on a throne of sand
Can’t break out of this maze
Said to leave a deep trace
Once designed
What’s been fought since day one
In a war never won
Now defined
This deadweight of the soul
A state of seige upheld
The worlds I weave
Of make-believe
In waking dreams expelled
The more the truth distorts
The less the mind’s a blur
Thought correction
Resurrection
Patching up the future
Feeding storm
Yet the walls still stand
Changing form
King of nothing on a throne of sand
Can’t break out of this maze
Said to leave a deep trace
Once designed
What’s been fought since day one
In a war never won
Now defined
Void of anguish
Nourished by isolation
And self-deception
Subconsciously I must have felt
As awe and dread increased
My nightmares would soon all be so vivid and visible
The punishment came to strike
As the roots come undone
Bit by bit
One by one
Ripping out any chance of control
Life is caught
In a haze
Preying on rainy days
Giving rise to a shell of a soul
Watch fate take wing
As the roots come undone
Bit by bit
One by one
Ripping out any chance of control
Life is caught in a haze
Preying on rainy days
Giving rise to a shell of a soul
What thrives in hiding
And on fear
Is making itself known like doubt in the clear
A shared illusion
Shown and destroyed
The error perfecting the void
Can’t break out of this maze
Said to leave a deep trace
Once designed
What’s been fought since day one
In a war never won
Now defined
