The Bereaved

(Album: Absolution - 2015)

As I burned one
Through smoke-lit eyes
I pushed too far past a glorious high
Into a void
Devoid of light
I lost control of my muscle and mind

And so I stepped
Close to the edge
My mandible broken on the end of a night
Succumbing to shock
I clung to my life
Just as my tongue was hanging agape to my eyes

And so I fell
Into the night
Psilocybin dreams
Claiming my mind
Into a void
There is no savior
Where is my life? Where is my darling now?

Became lost from space and time
And you were scared
You saw my bloodied body
Your greatest fear
Had been fully realized
That you lay there
Both of us saw the end
And I wasn't dead
No, I still had life
