Even innocence cannot avoid decay
We were promised everything, take it all away
To resurrect what was left to die
Fragments of failure filling hollow space

I will depart

My heart beats negative
As the body burns, high on deception
Waking from a nightmare half empty
Obsession with the final thrill

I will depart

And all is nothing
Rotting away
Possession of the flesh
I face my failures
Emptiness eternal

Hollow words, going nowhere
Awaken, shivering cold
Going nowhere, shivering cold
Going nowhere

Higher, higher, forever
Searching the night
Cold nights
A starving child
A beaten dog
Stained-glass reflections or bad memories

I will depart

The hypocritical hope lights up your eyes
Obsession is not far from sorrow
Awaken, shivering cold
Hollow words, going nowhere
Obsession with the final thrill
