Martyr AD

Seventyfive - Twentyfive Lyrics

Slave to monotony

Another breath breads futility

This is not a life

A trace of reality

Disease of existing life

Holds only shame for me

Slipping from importance

As I turn away

Cold hands breaking apart

This will not come to pass

We are all so alone

And I'm lying here

In a pool of my own isgust

A frail ritual

Practiced with apathy

If this is what life has to offer

Color me dead

And left to the vultures

Armed to the teeth with denial

Suffocate the slave as therapy

For the insane

And a lesson the the unforgiven

Waking to the bleak

Disturbing sound of nothingness

No one to save us

This has been set

By the eyes of the un-desired

Dead to the world

And tapped clean of all effort

Tie the tourniquet

Tight bleed the infection away

Know that an effort of trying

Is an effort towards dying in vain

Life's a fable of pride

Taught to mask the pawn

I've taken what you've given

And turned it into nothing

Killed myself to redefine suffering

Leave me here to rot

Find a flame

Cchoose a stake

Close your eyes and pass away
