The Autumn Offering - Narcosis lyrics

rate me

Submit to the numbness of narcotic sleep

It dulls my eyes and dilates under the expanse of grey skies

The dark comes to surface

In my dreams the world burns

Falling like prisms

Turned numb to the pain

Like my father spit on me

Tell me how worthless I am

As daylight filters leaves

She wept so many tears for me

Of desperation

Forgive me father

Forsaken have been left to die

The walking dead surround me

The hubris of our shame

Sleepwalkers and the lemmings of modern day

...and I'm sorry I always pushed you away

Please let me go

Cradled in its grip with a gun up to my head

Stomach aches

Skin is white

I'm always back for more

[Chorus]

You wanted to live

Time lapsed while I couldn't breathe (couldn't breathe)

Inspiration has died (you cannot open my eyes)

...and nothing makes me feel alive

(for years of the torment left covered in shame)

Time lapsed while I couldn't breathe

(cut from your pride, born from your pain)

As we slowly fade away

In the end your all buried to me

If callous hearts collide

Could I re-open the wounds left scarred?

To let those emotions bleed

Of the ghost that's left of me

[Chorus]<br />

<br />
