The Arrogance of Agony

The glance of death as I look into the mirror

The faceless staring back at me

Can't recognize this person

As something that I used to be

Remaining pain

Clings to my weakened mind

Leave me in peace

I can't take this anguish anymore

Trapped in this place

Damned to live, blessed to die

Staring away

There is a savor in the eyes of the dead, the dead

The arrogance of agony

Why should I try to win this fight when there is nothing left for me?

The arrogance of agony

Drown in despair until you take your final breath

Devotion to destructive habits, lead my way

Adorned with the filth of a traitor

Wash it all away as I have never lived

Shattering are the screams of redemption

Redeeming is the feeling of my deaf ears

Ignite the flames for a barren earth

As if it wasn't hard enough

My life devoted to a search

But I can't find this sacred place

My daemons are with me

Keep on walking through the night

Haunted by a shadow, a likeness of myself

My demise has come to take hold of me

The remains of my past collapse to my feet

The glance of death as I look into the mirror

The faceless staring back at me

Can't recognize this person

As something that I used to be

Is this a life

Worth living, or will I fall into this grief?

Pain release me

When judgement day has come, they will set me free

Devotion to destructive habits lead my way

Adorned with the filth of a traitor

Wash it all away as I have never lived

Shattering are the screams of redemption

Redeeming is the feeling of my deaf ears

Ignite the flames for a barren earth

The arrogance of agony

Why should I try to win this fight when there is nothing left for me?

The arrogance of agony

Drown in despair, now it is gone, my will of life
