Daath Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Why can't I free
The things I want
Why can't I be a
Part alone

Thrusting hate inside
I found a reason
Nothing from, nothing attacking
Something from, nothing we'll find

Thrusting hate inside
I found a reason
Tracing dead
Habits and finding
Mothing from, nothing untrue

You forsake my mind
You should have
Never possessed arid demon
Yourself undone

Keep on looking
But you fuck it away




And you'll keep on trying
But your minds led away
