๐ Lyrics
You sink slowly As murk dissolves the luminance
As pressure builds As flails reduce to flutter
Lungs fill with fluid As breath stifles As panic
Nictates into stillness With each weakening
Dying heartbeat you grow closer to death
What ideas enter a dying man's consciousness
In those last moments of actuality?
When survival is futile do you think of regret?
Do you beg for forgiveness to a god above?
An uncaring deity who let you suffer this fate?
Deeper You've lost sense of direction Do you struggle
To hang on to those last few moments of animation?
Where minutes dissect into seconds
Then seconds fraction themselves away into
Closing flickers of existence The hourglass reduces to the falling of each individual grain, and the world around you is slowly engulfed in darkness... while you expire at the speed of thought
As pressure builds As flails reduce to flutter
Lungs fill with fluid As breath stifles As panic
Nictates into stillness With each weakening
Dying heartbeat you grow closer to death
What ideas enter a dying man's consciousness
In those last moments of actuality?
When survival is futile do you think of regret?
Do you beg for forgiveness to a god above?
An uncaring deity who let you suffer this fate?
Deeper You've lost sense of direction Do you struggle
To hang on to those last few moments of animation?
Where minutes dissect into seconds
Then seconds fraction themselves away into
Closing flickers of existence The hourglass reduces to the falling of each individual grain, and the world around you is slowly engulfed in darkness... while you expire at the speed of thought
