Salvation, creation, the grave of misconception. Duration, starvation, inhale the vital life force
Devotion, destruction, remorse dissolves to salt
Erosion, obstruction, the knot of fear is wrung
Betray, the faceless. Your mercy strains our cause
Obey, this ocean, the waves will feed your loss
Delay, the riptide. Forget the once forsaken
Drown, your haven and let the water win...
*The tide breaks in, your last breath
Your essence rots beneath the dock
Dark waters fill your veins. Life sinks beyond the shore
The anchor drops on your shame
The blood turns red with laughter
The ray of light, soon turns to darkness
The fluid mutes your screams
No end to desperation, the abyss will not end
No rope to pull you out, the vortex will suck you in
*Debris of memories on the sand, the current drags away your thoughts
To float is just a reverie. Life sinks beyond the shore...
*Break the sun, with your weakness, Bring the night to the deep
Confusion, illusion, the past controls your essence,
Negating the truth, the farce of air grows stronger
Frustration, HATE, your future's laid to rest
Behold the sunset and feel the darkness spread
