Shrivel Lyrics

As complete you step towards the empty
One last tragedy, but not for you to face the aftermath
You've been on this path before
and seen that all forks lead to the same place
No place of solace will comfort you enough
No will to proceed to what is left to live for

Strengthened by surroundings, unknown to the rest.
Yet given to all - one escapes!
No cries for help, only attempts to comprehend
No safe harbor, not within yourself.
None is to change what will be death
No ground to understand. No will to live by demand

Only one way to cope with it all,
but not enough to turn the course
Darkness seems not to end.
It is a stagnant orbit in nil
Only short moments of delight,
on a pathway to the endless night
This is how it will remain; this is how it will end

One more effort, born out of that ever-growing pain
One last embrace of the dark that is written on our graves
One more to remember, one more with a complete name
For now that it is closed, all chapters unveiled

What bounded us once, has found its' way to us again
And all that there is an image set slowly to fade away
What once was real, was a pilgrimage to end this in a better way
But now that it is done, it all seems to make sense anyway

And all that there is now, memories and acts of the past
No need to take words back - this is what we will have
One more to remember, one more with a complete name
For now that it is closed, all chapters unveiled
