Au milieu de l'hiver
Here lies all I've been, still in the dirt. No trace of anything but filth and rot. I sing my elegy, to bid your rest. Buried beneath the snow, lifeless and cold. I stand before my tomb, under a mournful moon. These walls become my cage, black tar runs through my veins. One crimson tear falls to the ground. No-one but me grieves for this corpse. A fire devours my flesh, it feeds off my pain. Lost among phantoms of dread, wandering all alone. How could my soul heal in absence of time? Day after day, the same, deep in the dark. I sing my elegy, to bid your rest. Buried beneath the snow, lifeless and cold. Poison fills the void, all inside my body; a mist of silence within. My screams are all trapped in my throat, I yearn to cut them all away.

Floating away, minutes escape. Out of my hands, all vanishes. Dark air fills my lungs, coughin blood; coffin nails. No turning back, there awaits an endless ocean. Nowhere to be found. All these memories are worth naught . in the end. Is this the real you? Living in shadows, becoming one Is this the real you? Awake in a dream, unable to sleep again. Time destroys me and everything I ever got to know. Time destroys me, its cold hands hold tight, never to let go. Time destroys everything.

Oh, don't worry, lover I still haven’t gotten over you Oh, don't worry, soldier I still fear as good as the news Oh, don't worry, future I’m not sure we're gonna make it through Oh, don't worry, hunter I'm only one shepherd fighting for you Open my eyes to me Where the fuck I am I can't feel the space between This is how blue I've been Open my eyes to me Who the fuck I am I can't feel the space between This is how blue it's been Oh, don’t worry, mother I still know how to take the abuse Oh, don’t worry, father I still keep it all shut like you Open my eyes to me Where the fuck I am I can't feel the space between This is how blue I’ve been Open my eyes to me Who the fuck I am I can't feel the space between This is how blue it's been I feel the waves are crashing in They're floating on my body like an ocean Don’t you know the way The waves can make me feel like suicide again I'll never let you in, the pressure on my skin I'm down again, I'm down again I'm down again, I'm down again I want to find the god that lied inside my cereal I'm crushing the devils in the mirror All the stronger lay before me It's my pleasure, nice to meet you I can't see you, I can't feel you Well I'm down again, I'm down again I'm down again, I'm down again

All the worries within we hold for the future, all our fading dreams, the senseless cruelty... Knowing that all will end, always looking inside. Slowly burning our hopes for another life. The dying of our faith, darkness and silence... are the only answer to our deafening screams. Our hopeless effort of being, way beyond appearances. The masks that we wear to others fall out when we are alone. Unable to move, unable to speak. Shut myself in, there will be no more lies. In the depths of winter, I learned within me lies an invincible summer. (Au milieu de l’hiver, j’apprenais enfin qu’il y avait en moi un été invincible.) -Albert Camus
