Catharsis (feat. Jonas Babey)

Of a life whose weight we bear Of a life whose tomb we unearth Of a life we mistake for another Of a life we once served as a martyr In the abyss of the deepest depths Where light is like quicksand, it creeps and traps Imprisoned within our own walls Abandoned to the echoes of our own falls (of our own falls) Delusions, easy to be deceived A net of meanders they weave These sweet memories (memories) Once an enjoyable embrace (embrace) Now a suffocating agony Of a love we can never replace Leave me be (leave me be) Leave me fucking be Leave me be You who haunt my fantasies Flee from me You who drain my soul with ease (Blegh) Time, like a forbidden fruit Unforgiving, unyielding, it pursues It engulfs and swallows (and swallows) The once affable, now hollow I will no longer be a ghost Of my existence, but the host With this balm, I'll heal My humble essence, so surreal Break free from your chains That dictate every scene Links of a life That never seem to come undone (to come undone) Break free from your chains That drag me to my demise Links of a life That I no longer prize From a wild, unbridled soul (unbridled soul) A fervent, tempestuous mind (tempestuous mind) From an inspiration beyond control A radiant salvation one finds A radiant salvation one finds To the common lot, one must return Empty, cleansed of his pains Marked by scars that time cannot spurn Forsaken of his hateful strains Cleansed of his pains (cleansed of his pains) Forsaken of his hateful strains From a sea of shivers, the waves respond in kind Their undulations wild, their rhythms intertwined Passion set free, fervor unbridled A new world beckons, a challenge untried Amidst these lunatics, seek the rightful place Harness the strength, and find the pace Choose the cards, and play with the grace Become the ace, the victor in race Break free from your chains That dictate every scene Links of a life That never seem to come undone (to come undone) Break free from your chains That drag me to my demise Links of a life That I no longer prize (No longer prize) With a lingering taste of freedom That I'll never forget Catharsis With a lingering taste of freedom That I almost gave up Catharsis
