Descent
Fear Factory (Hatefiles) Lyrics

Falling victim from neglect
To become a victim as a result of being ignored or overlooked

Designed thoughts and intellect
An intellectual capacity or creative ability that is well-planned

Forgotten and displaced
Feeling abandoned, disregarded and displaced from the world

The crux of my dismay
The main source of distress or disappointment in one's life

I feel nothing
Emptiness, lack of sensation or feeling

I am nothing
Feeling worthless, insignificant and non-existent

Deeper into this obyss
Falling into a dark, deep hole or abyss, metaphorically representing despair and hopelessness

Weighted down and sinking fast
Burdened by troubles and sinking into misery at a fast pace

Life did not offer me
Life did not provide or furnish me with what I needed or wanted

More than false destiny
A predetermined fate that is untrue or deceptive in nature

I am nothing
A repetition of feeling insignificant and non-existent

I feel nothing
A repetition of emptiness and lack of sensation or feeling

Nothing
An utter sense of emptiness and worthlessness

How deep I descend?
A rhetorical question about how far into despair one can fall

Until I reach my end?
Wondering if one will reach the final point of misery and hopelessness

How deep I descend?
A repetition of the earlier rhetorical question

Nothing
An utter sense of emptiness and worthlessness

How deep I descend?
A repetition of the earlier rhetorical question

Until I reach my end?
A repetition of the earlier wondering if one will reach the final point of misery and hopelessness

How deep I descend?
A repetition of the earlier rhetorical question

How deep I descend?
A repetition of the earlier rhetorical question

How deep I descend?
A repetition of the earlier rhetorical question
