Empath Lyrics

Close his eyes now
As he lays in your arms
One last song before you dig
As it always was
And as it shall remain
Walk straight away
don't look back at the grave
Remember you will forget by morning
As it always was
and as it shall remain

I tomb myself every evening
And let the dreams fade in denial
But from behind the wall of sleep
The thunder rolls closer to the wall

Here Lies The Empath...

"The life force has been released
Into the soil moaning beyond these wooden walls
My energy will never leave
Will only change form to hunt you down"

I've chosen my degradation
My sulphur needs me here aware
The wall of sleep will not be scaled by you
The thunder will not breach the other side

Self-doubt blurs the lines between depression and depravity
Too blind to truly see the carcasses around
Shadows dragging them to the hills could not pierce one layer of this
Total emotional recession

Let this rapture be my last??
"The war has just begun"

"Stick your hand in the ivy
Right where you hid them last
This time those stones will whisper back"

"You will not be forgiven you will not be forgiven you will not be forgiven..."

Walk straight away
don't look back at the grave
Remember you will forget him too
And I will wait

Searching the lifeless bog
for clues from its ghost who could release me
Every trace has been obscured
there is no hope for me here
I'll lay where he once did
amongst the thorns and fog
And wait for death or sleep

Woken by fingers entwined with mine
Pulling me up to watch the stars
They laugh as light connects them in patterns
And the shapes burst forth in blue
A circle of souls holding hands beneath
Your final gift to this world
I knew it was you
Traveler, Redeemer
But I knew I wouldn't change

"You have all but forgotten
And his starlight falls in vain"

Enchantments have come and gone over the years I've wasted
The suicides have coaxed and yet denounced
The will to live in perfect alignment with the heart's insistings
Nothing is enough to break the cycle
I will remain here
A spiritual destitute

"Covered in Stardust, the stones grow Limbs and child eyes
They walk in a line and in perfect cursive
Their feet press one word into the grass
And they laugh as it bursts into flames"

What is the word???
What is the word???
I'll take just enough blood
To bring it back into view
Take just enough to see my brothers again
I'll take just enough
What is the word???
