Tides Of Man - Contents Within lyrics
rate meDesolately awaiting nightfall, <br />
The cool dead feeling, to fall on my face, <br />
Patiently... <br />
And I'll forget this day, <br />
Did you forget me here, <br />
In this corridor of Hell?<br />
Where I lost my mind, <br />
To desecration and fear?<br />
Did you leave me behind, <br />
Thinking I would tell your secrets?<br />
Did you leave me to die?<br />
My shroud removed, <br />
And my body uncovered, <br />
Left for the Vultures to tear at my skin, <br />
To relish from my skull, the contents within, <br />
Here I have lay, <br />
With these dark demons of prey, <br />
Using grimy black talons they disfigured my face, <br />
Please God I pray:<br />
Send your Eagle this way! <br />
Did you forget me here, <br />
In this corridor of Hell?<br />
Where I lost my mind, <br />
To desecration and fear?<br />
Did you leave me behind, <br />
Thinking I would tell your secrets?<br />
Did you leave me to die?<br />
Entirely surpassing the point of apathetic submission I spilled all, <br />
Yet with every surrendering word I let slip<br />
The more un-satiated the Vultures became... <br />
I must set things right.<br />
But sprawled upon this mires coagulated bed, <br />
I forget the plentiful pints I bled, <br />
And dwell on many more I let them shed, <br />
From my honest brother's blameless head.
