lyrics

I see empty places, the nothingness in its pure essence
Everything around me crosses my skin
Like if I was a ghost
Feeding my solitude, far far way from the sunlight
Being awake doesn't have a meaning if you don't have something to fight for
Each one of your steps will be ereased, like if you didn't make them
What is the meaning of your existence?
To feel the constantly pain?
I walk throught this life looking out for a real thing
But everything is fake, people are superficial scum, with no values
I love your silence, I hate this emptiness

The cold fog rises over my skin
Carrying all the world's negativity inside my soul
I fight against my thoughts
I'm condemned by the unreal
Suicide is coming, the act of freedom

I'm watching the darkness dancing in front of me
Its strong melancholy seduces me
A sea of sorrow
Bringing an inexistent future
I wish to smash reality
I wish to scape from my own hatred, that reigns over my soul

My mind plays with the memories
A fight against the demons
I hate you!
A mental fight, marked by floggings

Am I mad?
NO!
I'm in the purest reality
In this asylum without walls
What is your reality?
What they say, or what you see?
Do you see people around you?
CRY! You're in hell!
