Mistress - Grimdown lyrics

rate me

You know the feeling when it's always just around the edges<br />

Overwhelming sense of pressure?<br />

On the periphery<br />

The weight is always threatening, you know it<br />

Could collapse your vision<br />

Always the desperate screaming bubbling below the surface<br />

Can you even stay in control?<br />

Just like that night you broke before the agonising flow of memories and drowned in the flood<br />

<br />

You never wanted it<br />

But your wants don't mean shit<br />

The grimdown<br />

<br />

The matted shit encrusted fur of the beasts<br />

The monsters wrestling inside your brain<br />

So scared they will break out and paralyse your helpless ass<br />

How can you stand before this devil?<br />

It's like an octopus that's made of tar, it's reaching out, there's suckers clinging wet to your face<br />

And now the panic comes<br />

You cannot speak, you cannot breathe<br />

The grimdown's made you into it's slave<br />

<br />

You never wanted it<br />

But your wants don't mean shit<br />

The grimdown<br />

<br />

Can feel the contours of everything you look at<br />

And each and everyone is painful<br />

There is no chance for heroism, only trembling in panicked fear<br />

No where to be safe<br />

Desperate terror like a child crying in the dark for mother<br />

But no answer will come<br />

Kicking, screaming, begging, pleading<br />

Stop snivelling, it's useless<br />

The grimdown shows no mercy<br />

<br />

You never wanted it<br />

But your wants don't mean shit<br />

The grimdown<br />

<br />

The coldest feeling in the burning pit of your stomach<br />

The onset has you locked in it's grasp<br />

You're so pathetic, why can't you even admit it<br />

Incapable of wiping your own arse<br />

All along you've known you were your own worst enemy<br />

You created the grimdown to fear<br />

But not it's too late you are it's bitch<br />

You cannot change the fact the grimdown is here
