Nicodemus - Something In The Walls lyrics

rate me

Where is the peace and levity that I once knew?

How darest I be thrust unto this, comfort lay in preterition.

My ambiguous mind thought it sound all the same.

A violent painting hangs amid my former mirth,

Beautiful in silence I am captive of it's pain.

Wading through colours, black drifts into pleasant twilight blue.

What may I see within it's patterns?

I am waiting for you.

Figures and their shelter cast, are obstructing my odium.

Resist I may, yet hollowed by the searing gaze of an unknown eye.

I fear that here amongst the oppressive fog of a tired, yet ageless night.

My restraint too common, a vassal am I, suffer I shall to she'd my blight.

What is this cancer, these lessons from the abstract design?

Enter it's grievance, I am tortured to see it through.

Blind to your apparent cause, all I see is you.

Rise thy wicked purpose... rise.

Fierce serpent, speaking in tongues,

Your breath the soliloquy I crave.

Yet deaf I be to the monologues,

I beg of you interlocution... I am afraid.

Only damp sorrow in the air to breathe.

Territory of thine choices and words,

Decisions I remember, how I wish to forget.

Growing impatient with passing reminders,

I run in fear, fall into inevitability.

I am not ashamed of these perverted dreams of mine.

A mystic art thou... terror present... truth behold.

That for which I hunger is a human plague,

A hunger worth dying for, yet I shall ne'er see a grave.

Wading through the colours, black drifts into pleasant twilight blue.

What may I see within it's patterns?

I am waiting for you.
