Misty Underpass (lyrics)
The fact, the name
The shame, the hate
The pact, too late
To amend my mistakes
The distraction, an attraction
To things that could kill me
Retraction, reaction
All which should be plain to see
Anytime my devotion slips
It comes on strong
Anywhere the seduction
Although the pain, I still need more
To hell with sins, I’ve got enough of them to heed
Really, it’s just a matter of when they plant another seed
Widowed from that which I love, the torment is cold further still
Even if the rest of the world discards me as something mute
Not a word, just the late signs of regret
Yet another day goes by, as I grow further from the sun
Under azure moonlight, I start to cry, any hope I leave behind
Even when I scoff at the world, cold thoughts sends shivers down my spine
A frigid scarecrow, bereft of all life, the differences become harder to tell
In a misty underpass, falling back on the ground
“Leave this sacred world behind, as far as you know
It’s blank...”
It’s killing me dead, four is the time
That my daily hell begins
Why should I be wasting my time,
Searching for a hope that’s never been
It’s true that I look down on myself
Why, nothing could remotely be more clear
Bitter memories of smiles which I have held
Struggle to find a reason to care
Help, find me
Help pacify me
It’s time to live and learn
Feel anger
I know better, than to crash and burn
The thoughts never leave my mind
As they’re waiting to decide
Whatever punishment they’re trying to hide
Well, I let them go running wild
But I know there’s more to life than what my empty bottle tells me
There is a way out of the crystal cage I’ve forged for myself
So tell me where I can find my shelter
Tell me how I can let loose from the guilt
I need to know where they keep my happiness alive,
Tied to some net, but the spider’s not real
Not to them
And how can I keep from deceiving myself
How can I start convincing myself that life is to be enjoyed
I need to strike down this pain, make it null and void
Everything’s driving me crazy
Even when I beg, you never shut up
Increasing your self-entitlement
And letting me know that I’m perfectly useless
Can’t you use your time, telling me something new
And I’m sick and tired of everyone lying
Too difficult to separate from the truth
Why can’t you stay quiet,
Oh, Lord, I wanna go home!
I have no qualms with accepting the facts
I know I have many flaws that I won’t keep away
Desperate to find an opening…
Jump straight through the fire
Help, find me
Help pacify me
It’s time to live and learn
Feel anger
I know better, than to crash and burn
Now, any of the walls I built
They collapse down into dust
Any more joys of mine you can kill?
I’m sure you want to express your disgust
With me
The fact, the name
The shame, the hate
The pact, too late
To amend my mistakes
In this misty underpass...
The fact, the name
The shame, the hate
The pact, too late
To amend my mistakes
The distraction, an attraction
To things that could kill me
Retraction, reaction
All which should be plain to see

Although the pain, I still need more
To hell with sins, I’ve got enough of them to heed
