Lyrics
Suffocating sorrow
Rooted in a broken past
The man carries a burden
And pain under the mask
Seeking oblivion in a well of misery
Inflaming wounds eternally
He accelerates towards death
Overshadowed by the ghost of his past
On the edge of sanity
Contemplating life itself
Driven mad with hopeless yearning
Perplexed in a world I detest
Bleak
Bleak
Bleak
Bleak yet beautiful
Oh his sins have become wounds
Can he heal without the help
Of another or is he alone?
Disappear into obscurity
Slowly losing my humanity
I have been my own worst enemy
Inflame my internal injury
Under cold moonlight
Passing ruins and graves
Death glows like the only light
Outside a blackened cave
I long to know those ancient lives
Those who suffered the same
In the endless struggle to survive
Tombstones remember their names
Oh geliebte Dunkelheit
Wie kühl du die Sterne umarmst
So leuchte mir die Wahrheit
Und erwürge meine Angst
