Shield

(앨범: Cycle Of Suffering - 2020)

Absorbed in the deceit
I feel the axiom depart
I've seen the crushing hands of karma
Tear lives apart

Sit and lament
As I descend
I find no solace in the lies that I've built
And I repent
To circumvent
Made no bones about the wounds that I've left

But I swear I've tried
But the guilt is eating me alive
A recurring throe
To plunge me deep below

When I've fallen
When the pain comes
I will be braced for the worst
So here's hoping
You're my saviour
I bear the burdens of the earth

Controlling every lucid moment
No sign of respite
I slip beneath the conscious mind

I swear I've tried
But the guilt is eating me alive
A recurring throe
To plunge me deep below

When I've fallen
When the pain comes
I will be braced for the worst
So here's hoping
You're my saviour
I'll shield the darkness of this earth

I'll shield the darkness from you!

I swallow the burdens
And on these imperfections I dwell
Entomb me in this self-constructed hell

Penance

When I've fallen
When the pain comes
I will be braced for the worst
So here's hoping
You're my saviour
I am the witness of this earth
