Slough of Despond Lyrics

Wanderers on the trodden soil
remembering these gloomy paths of Old.
Head in hands, I realize that I am just one of them
only madness holds me here.
Fragments of life long gone flashing in my mind,
now an empty shelf with no aim to go.

Ceaseless hate, hating all that is alive
eating my own flesh and the flesh of others.
It's all that's left in this absurd existence,
I don't know who they are but I'll stay with them.
No meaning for what was before the Death,
Life wasn't even real but a twitches in dead brain.
Wanting more of this senseless anguish,
Stuck knee-deep among the humans perished.

Hopelessness rules in this slough of despond,
surety of misery and grief for all.
Despairing with need to relive the woes,
embrace neverending dying on the gloomy paths of Old.
