Darkness
Integrity Lyrics

Rotting stench of my corroding remains
My decaying body gives off a foul odor as I am consumed by my suffering.

I'll never be the same
The events that have transpired have changed me fundamentally and irreversibly.

Distribution, disallusioned
I am scattered and disillusioned, unable to focus or find direction.

I gotta lean to balance out the pain
To cope with the pain, I have to lean on something for support.

Separation of state and mind
My sanity has become separate from my physical being, as if they exist in different states.

I cannot, I will not die
Despite my suffering, I refuse to give up on life.

Locked away inside my mind
I am trapped inside my own thoughts and can't escape my pain.

I am guilty, I am the crime
I blame myself for my situation and feel responsible for my own suffering.

You gotta let me out
I am asking for help to be freed from my own torment.

You gotta help me survive
I need someone to support me and help me get through my pain.

In this world of pain
The world we live in is a place of suffering and hardship.

Icepick through the face
A violent image that represents the pain and brutality of life.

Bloodsoaked existance
My life is drenched in blood and pain.

Don't get in my way
I am warning others to stay out of my path, as I am consumed by my own pain and may lash out.

A chain is only
This phrase is the start of a metaphor about the strength of a chain.

As strong as it's weakest link
This metaphor means that the overall strength of a group is dependent on the strength of its weakest member.

Flesh so durable
My body is able to withstand physical pain, but not emotional pain.

My razor is my only release
Cutting myself is the only way I can find temporary relief from my emotional pain.

As your blood pours you inside out
The violent imagery here paints a picture of someone being consumed by their own pain and suffering.
