Aggressor

I’m haunted by visions of the future I’ve seen

Lost in the persistence of these horrible dreams

Suffocate as I fall for the last time

Detonate in my heart like a landmine

No escape from the start, I was born on a deadline

Long ago, I saw hope and innocence

Now I know of my own impermanence

I have already tried

to look under the surface

there was nothing to find

Confined by inherent design

a soul without a purpose

on the edge of the night

Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide

found myself in a wasteland I couldn’t recognize

and everyone is dead inside

Hold the fear inside us forever

haunted by the silent aggressor

Alone in this hell, I’m losing myself

show me what lies beyond the final farewell

Oh, there’s nothing else

I’ve seen the truth

Did you really think there was nothing to lose?

I’ve hit the bottom

and fallen through

This hopeless world will be over soon

I have already tried

to look under the surface

there was nothing to find

Confined by inherent design

a soul without a purpose

on the edge of the night

Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide

found myself in a wasteland I couldn’t recognize

and everyone is dead inside

Hold the fear inside us forever

haunted by the silent aggressor

All alone, lost in the dark

set in stone, our brittle hearts

far from home, we’ve gone too far

Time will show that the loss is permanent

Now I know it was all inside my head

There’s nothing left

Aggressor…

I’m gone forever
