Misericord Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The sense of lost and hopeless
I can feel my heart collapsing
This pressure is building up
Unhinged and directionless
I can feel it building up this pressure is too much, it's taking all of me
I am the man I say I am
These tortured thoughts play in my mind
The shadows of my demons always in front me
This darkness is forever
I can feel it building inside of me
This isn't what I want for myself
The sense of lost and hopeless
I can feel my heart collapsing
This pressure is building up
Unhinged and directionless
I can feel it building up this pressure is too much, it take all of me
Do I have what it takes to make it the end Im letting go, Im giving in
I'm letting go I'm giving in
The silence is what I seek
Now and forever
