I moved a mountain of grief
And I carry it with me
I cried as I stared down the sun
And it wouldn't take me
Petitioned God to just make a sound
Because the light can't guide me
My body ached before the storm
As I prepared for a war
Years of decay are now
Realized through unbirth
A cold wind surrounds my sight
Yet I still feel my descent
Numb to things that I once loved
None of it matters now
My body aches before the storm
And I will lose a war
Dead knowing life built on regrets
Fading forgetting as the sun sets in the west
No peace for me now
Existence only memories
No peace for me now
I am lost to the world of man
Still carrying weight
Of untold failures
I wouldn't even know
Where to begin
My burdens will sink me
And you will tie the rope
Dead knowing life built on regrets
Fading forgetting as the sun sets in the west

The album that made me a true YOBian, after sleeping on them for too long. They set my blood on fire and stir up the sleeper in me, what more can I say? Thank you, YOB. GodIsChad
