Rotting in Dereliction Lyrics

Sometimes it seems like it can only be difficult
Odd moments of peace may disguise the impending doom
But the dissent rages, if not in one then in another
And all sense of hope is culled

Searching for utopia, only to find stagnation and disappointment
The ego bloodied and torn, yet grasping still
Desperate to find the one reason so great
It might justify this unending time of unrest

All that you are is a parasite
A leech that would drain the last drop
And offer only arrogance and silent indignation in return
I am done with days skulking in the blindness of false bliss
Dead is the will to believe
Crushed is the hope, buried in the blackest seas

Memories are stark, damaged, bleak
Aghast with misery
Destined for failure, future is only the betrayer of hope
No sustenance on which it could feed
This vessel lay empty now, rotting in dereliction
Frozen in time, as the last fragment falls to the earth
Like some deathly tear
