Purgatory
Errabyss Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I′m sorry for never being enough
They'll only care when I′m dead
No rest, no peace, locked in my head with no release
Tie my noose to let me breath
As I knock on the door of the beast
Purgatory
I've lived a long life
Time to have my memory erased
You pick and pry and take every little ounce of
Fucking strength left that I have
Leaving me with fucking nothing
Withered and brittle crumbling at your demand
Rotting from my core
Bone fucking dry
I am the devil inside your head
Endless purgatory
You will wish you're dead
There is peace in death, I will bring it to my self
A Worm will never understand the sky above
I am the devil inside your head
You′ll wish you were dead
The lyrics of Errabyss's song Purgatory express deep feelings of hopelessness, pain, and despair. The opening line, "Endless purgatory," sets the tone for the rest of the song. The singer is trapped in a state of purgatory, a place where they are not able to move on to heaven or hell but are instead stuck in a state of limbo. They apologize for "never being enough," likely in reference to feeling like they have failed in some way. The line "They'll only care when I'm dead" suggests a feeling of being unimportant and overlooked in life.
The lyrics continue to describe the singer's sense of being trapped, with "no rest, no peace, locked in my head with no release." They even go so far as to wish for death, saying "There is peace in death, I will bring it to myself." The final lines of the song, "I am the devil inside your head/You'll wish you were dead," bring a sense of anger and vengeance to the song, perhaps suggesting that the singer has become so consumed by their pain that they want others to feel it too.
Overall, the lyrics of Purgatory paint a picture of someone in a state of deep emotional pain, feeling trapped and hopeless, with little hope for a way out.
