Lyrics

(A)
I've made my way through this frozen wasteland
the chain around my neck drags me forwards
the murders of crows keep me company
their shrill shrieks resonate deep within

(B-)
I don't know and nor do i care
where this journey began
there's just so little to share
now that i know where it will end

(A)
In the ever-closing distance
i can sense it looming
an unending abyss leading nowhere
no matter my struggles, it comes closer

(B-)
This weight attached to my soul
is hanging deep in the void
my misguided steps
keep taking me closer to the edge

(B)
the edge of the emptiness
leading only to darkness
this precipe, this threshold
i have been here before

(A)
the memories, they flood me
i've made this journey so many times
how have i ever managed
to reclaim myself?

(C)
despite my best efforts
the weight keeps me down
i keep chasing that chasm
just to feel the weightlessness
of the plunge into the gorge
no matter what lies below
i fantasize about falling
just to escape the restlessness

(B-)
I don't know and nor do i care
where this journey began
there's just so little to share
now that i know it will end at

(B)
the edge of the emptiness
leading only to darkness
this precipe, this threshold
i can take it no more

(E)
wading through a waist deep moor slows me down
but still i get dragged onwards
if i could would i give up?
had i the choice would i cut my ties?
there's nothing i can do
there's nothing i wouldn't do
to again feel light
to feel no more fright

(B-)
This weight attached to my soul
is hanging deep in the void
my misguided steps
keep taking me closer to the edge

(B)
the edge of the emptiness
leading only to darkness
this precipe, this threshold
i have been claimed by the abyss
