lyrics

as if we weren't already trying to compensate 
the ruin we brought upon others.
as if we weren't convinced that our lives 
bear nothing more than this carnal prison.

great god of grief. a light drifting to me.
release the grip. before you bare my shame.
this was condemned to fail.
this was already mapped out.
grave consequence adorned with doubt.

as if we weren’t considering our cruelties
pulling the flesh towards putrid sin
as if we weren't residing in the depths
where great beasts sleep carrying our misdeeds

great god of grief. a light drifting to me.
release the grip. before you bare my shame.
this was condemned to fail.
this was already mapped out.
grave consequence adorned with doubt.

now i see that we are excellent in our ferociousness

blinded with our own defects.
still they are conspicious like lightning in stormlit nights.
wearily wandering the sombre path to avert the burning sun

of haunting the hearts of the worthless.
of dwelling on lost memories 
of waiting for the silence 
of repelling the unalterable truth 
of that there is no doubt that we are the greatest disappointment 
that ever has shone upon this world.
