  • Oh
    What has exhaustion brought me?
    Unvisited, but still too busy to close my eyes
    (To close my eyes)

    Maybe one day I'll grasp the pattern
    Maybe in time this will all be readable
    Maybe in time (time)

    As if the solitude could bring me any peace
    I was greeted with Constance, I found no sleep

    These thoughts are nothing but wished away
    I can't remember what it is to be content
    These thoughts are nothing but wished away
    (But wished away)
    I can't remember what it is to be content, 'eah

    Show me the exit
    Let the signals fade
    Maybe one day I'll defeat the cycle
    Maybe (maybe) in time (in time)
    I'll be able to define this

    This wretched purgatory (purgatory)

    As if the solitude could bring me any peace
    I was greeted with Constance, I found no sleep

    These thoughts are nothing but wished away
    I can't remember what it is to be content
    These thoughts are nothing (these thoughts are nothing)
    But wished away (but wished away)
    I can't remember what it is to be content
    This is bound to fail
    This is bound to fail

    Go ahead

    The enemy will not resist, deceived until the end
    I hate this persistence, my eyes may never close
    I hate this persistence, my eyes may never close Writer/s: ANDREW JEROME TRICK, CHRISTOPHER HENRY RUBEY, JAMES SELLECK BANEY, JEREMY ROBERT DEPOYSTER, LARRY DANIEL WILLIAMS, MICHAEL JAMES HRANICA
