1. LIFELINK

Exiled out
Stranded away with my grief
Cope with delusions, these emotions made me drown in endless blue
Swarm of parasites
How they storm in my head, want me to sever the ties
Fade into bitter silence
Leave behind a trail of crushed ambitions
Locked in views so negative
Same old voices, they want me to cut it

Shut the lights, cut the life link
Death in my iris, it is nothing new
Trying to see the silver lining
My heart is cold from all the horrors that I doomscrolled through

Exiled out
It’s crawling under my skin
Creeps and intruders within
I am searching for a way to cure the itch
I always keep a ghost around
Stuck to my back like a fucking leech

We are bound to coexist but I can’t do this anymore
Thread is wearing thin
The blade of time is hanging low
The hourglass is placed where my heart used to beat so fast
Reaching for the surface, and this addiction seems to last
Never dies

It never dies
Exiled out
Stranded
Drift away, sinking down the river bed
Gone astray, sinking to the end

Help me find the way out of here
A place of rot and despair
I’ll never give in to the grey again
This time I solemnly swear
Taken by force in a circling maze that I struggle to understand
Once had the sun in the palm of my hand but now it remains only the rain
Whispers resonate in the room, coming with a curse
Fuckers ended up in the verse, and they want me to…

Shut the lights, cut the life link
Death in my iris, it is nothing new
Trying to see the silver lining
My heart is cold from all the horrors that I doomscrolled through

Help me find a way out
Help me find a way to love again
I’ve gone astray, sinking down the river bed
Help me rebuild the bridges set ablaze
I watched my end through faded eyes and held onto the link of life
Faded eyes
Shut the lights, cut the lifelink
