Demur - Barrén

Falling,

I’ve lost all purpose, I’ve lost all feeling.

Solace,

The soulless voices speak of the end of the world

A constant drone that leaves me deaf

Calling me

Losing my vision, losing all sense of where I am

I don’t know where to go any more

I don’t know where I’m going,

But the fear won’t keep me away

Because I’d rather die out there than waste another day

I have no regret for what I am

I feel the weight of what you think I should be

Drifting away,

Fading away.

Overcome.

The fire inside burns away at my heart and lingers as I wait

Drawing closer, complacent thoughts plague my mind.

Rotting away.

Throwing away

Everything that I thought my world could be.

What’s left?

Is there enough to carry on?

Pulled under and I know that I’ll die with no face.

Empty handed, just leave me be.

Let me fail,

Please just let me fall.

Deeper into the void.

Why do you do this to yourself?

There is no glorious end, only pain.

Forever bound to an endless path, no escaping

I know that I will never live up to what you expect of me.

Never fitting your mold.

I wouldn’t have it any other way.

I don’t know where I’m going,

But the fear won’t keep me away

Because I’d rather die out there than waste another day
