I sit alone and stare into space
What's happened to me
Hopeless bitterness, disgrace
Is all that I can see
This is all wrong where did this come from
My chest is tight and my mind is racing
Was it the dark words I read from
Or the call of some outer being
Don't call up more than you can put down
I can feel myself
Starting to hate myself
Right now
The greatest measure of mercy
Is that mankind cannot see
We live on placid isles in ignorance
Engulfed in black seas of infinity
Don't call up more than you can put down
Space
Time
And misery
Have no end
We hold on tight to what we know
And find bleak peace in letting go
Cast adrift on the black seas
Sinking, drowning, floating home
