Weight of the Dead |
| «I lost the last of my hope on that night |
| When the morning never came |
| Staring in the eye of all those ghosts of loss |
| And like the plague it crushed me |
| On the eve of a new moon» |
| I’m made of filth, of lies |
| No clean blood runs in me |
| I’ve turned to everything I hate |
| Black blood and dirt in a human shell |
| Leaving these trails of betrayal |
| Cold lifeless flesh, a so called man |
| Choking on the pain of others |
| In my own lies I drown |
| Happiness was all I reached for |
| But sure, no one deserves it |
| That dim light I still held, finally faded |
| There was so much in me that I trusted |
| But so little I knew |
| The weakness I held was stronger than anything |
| And it turned me into arrows for the ones I truly loved |
| Forgive me for falling |
| I know you all trusted in me |
| But I’m made of filth, of lies |
| No good blood runs in me |
| Forgive me all, no more hope |
