Cremulator - Descent Lyrics

Preyed upon by the creeping dark
There is no time for this obsession
Set free by my negligence
No healing in confession

On every lip, a speechless horror dwelt
On every brow, the burden of affliction
The ancestral spirits felt
The pain of life's malediction

Some dreams are nothing else but dreams
Foolish and full of contradiction
Yet all our most impassioned schemes
Are little more than fictions

All the signs around me warn me not to take this life
All the life within me is calling out to die
Ignored every cry for help, each plea for guidance spurned
Beaten, broken, no strength left, to the end I turn
The forest calls and I obey, it's too late to turn back
The noose tightens round my neck, my vision goes black

I wake
Cold fingers lift my face
Pain in my limbs and in my throat
I take
A breath in cold embrace
Clutching the letter I wrote

I call out to the empty trees
The silent groves give no response
I am left with my remorse
For the life I nearly lost

Some dreams are nothing else but dreams
Foolish and full of contradiction
Yet all our most impassioned schemes
Are little more than fictions
