Gloom And The Art Of Tribulation

(альбом: La Grande Mascarade - 2020)

Trauma sets in
Mesmerized by the hell I created
Swallowed whole by the darkness that lives within me
Architect of my spiritual undoing
Lover to misery
Oh sweet suffering, silently slithering
Remove me from this earth
This empty shell that is me
A deadly construct, this gnawing mistrust
Into the darkness I descend
Oh sweet suffering, perfectly crippling
A sewer of waste
Toxic thoughts ingrained
Pestiferous, obnoxious, erroneous
Into the darkness I descend

A petty deprivation, this constant need for validation
Deceitful nature is imposed
An apocrypha, immoral
Deceitful nature exposed
Ever-growing desperation
Sinking me to my lowest lows
Remove me, violently
Total exacerbation
The stench of despair
Remove me, silently
Devious manipulation
Constant need for validation
Deceitful nature imposed
I can no longer perceive who I am in this maze
True nature exposed
Knife to my throat
Is this my way out
Mesmerized by the hell I created
Swallowed whole by the darkness that lives within me
Architect of my spiritual undoing
Lover to misery

Gloom and despair, the art of tribulation
Gloom and despair, seductive damnation

Gloom and the lure of death
Unworthy of fixing vermin shell
Gloom and the lure of death
Unworthy of fixing shattered shell

Remove me, end me
Remove me from hell
Remove me, end this
From this tremulous fear, the intoxicating deep
Remove me, take me from tribulation
Remove me, take me from desperation
Remove me, end this
From this tremulous fear, the intoxicating deep
Ever-growing desperation
Sinking me to my lowest lows
Remove me, violently
Total exacerbation
The crippling state of depression
Remove me, silently
