lyrics

What if it disappeared entirely?
Stuck in the dark without a memory
Don’t understand just got away from me
My face a vacant look of disbelief
Emotion with no sensitivity
Alone in my own anonymity
A splitting sound and all that’s found of me is broken down
Relieved of all purpose, a wanderer now
Why did I take all that it had to give so easily?
Empty waiting on the other side
An awakening, the faintest thing now hungered for
I have no more
Lifeless, unfortunate, and weighed to fall
I can’t imagine it, I can’t imagine at all
I’m slipping in, and out, and in, and out again
Full of these listless beginnings without any end
Why did I take all that it had to give so easily?
Empty waiting on the other side
An awakening, the faintest thing now hungered for
I am no more
Than a child
Waiting
But I don’t know what for
Just sat down
Kept quiet
Chasing a lesson fading
Then it’s gone
As my mind’s taken from me
I’m left a false sense of invulnerability
Like stepping off without ever looking down
Empty space below my feet
No prints to show where I came from or where I’ve been
Caught, alone, falling
An entity abandoned
with no reprieve at all
This heavy nothing sinks, to a bottom unreachable
And I am alone
Stuck in the dark without a memory And then it disappeared entirely
