lyrics

severed sense of hunger i am longing for a taste
spring of life is filled with hate and bitter vitriol
bringing out my worst and pushing friends away
i sit alone in wait, crying in disdain
i will break the shackles in my tomb and make my escape
there is no time to waste, the day is growing late

i can see sunlight seeping through the cracks now
fears and superstitions falling by my side

your grip is losing hold on me
the last scraps of glue holding together their best intentions
turning to rot

[JJ]
remove the cancer around my heart
disgusting pessimism melting away
as i'm watching who i was turn to ash before me
now i take to the form that suits me
there's no one left to blame

look at me and who i am now
let the past melt away

now that the cynic has died i am free to live my life
feeding off of the light instead of suicide
