Decay

(album: Ashes - 2018)

My life feels like a painting left unfinished
But the artist died and here I lie
Just a sliver of an image
I feel that there's a purpose for my spirit
But it's trapped in place, stuck in its cage
Suffering from this sickness
So here I am

My mind feels like a child left alone in the dark
I don't wanna be afraid, be afraid
But I'm so afraid
I've walked this road for miles yet
I've never felt so far
From what I thought was happiness as I decay
And fade away

Most days it feels like I'm just going nowhere
A perfect mess progressing less
As the end keeps getting closer
The world is shaking
My bones are aching
I've slipped deep in a sleep
Without a sign of waking
So here I am

My mind feels like a child left alone in the dark
I don't wanna be afraid, be afraid
But I'm so afraid
I've walked this road for miles yet
I've never felt so far
From what I thought was happiness as I decay
And fade away

Discouraged and out of breath
No courage, nothing left
Will I let this be the end?
Discouraged and out of breath
No courage, nothing left
Will I let this be the end?

My mind feels like a child left alone in the dark
I don't wanna be afraid, be afraid

My mind feels like a child left alone in the dark
I don't wanna be afraid, be afraid
But I'm so afraid
I've walked this road for miles yet
I've never felt so far
From what I thought was happiness as I decay
And fade away
