Dead Reflection (Vortex)

from Reflections Demo Sessions by Absence of Truth

/

lyrics

Feed my soul
It's been far too long
I see myself in waves
Is it time to jump in
No

Anew I'm born, was this all a nightmare
Changing styles, changing motions, changing figures
Everything evolves slowly
But then it comes back to the centre
Everything revolves again

Live with synergy
The nonsense is broken

Jump from the edge, begin it all again
Burn all your dreams and die like the rest
I've found myself again, broken and in pain
Maybe when I die finally it will rain
Someday a real rain will come
Someday

I jump
Released from the void
I escaped from the machine
Dead but not lost
I escaped from the machine

Die? I don't want to
It's just being trapped inside everyday
Isolation, the only path
That I have ever taken but it's led me here

The passageway to my utter demise was listening to all of you
You lied to me, said working on myself would make everything better
And now I'm back to where I started
Don't believe a word they tell you, it's written into their code

My identity never defeating
But still I long for meaning
My eyes see what they want, death
Regardless of what I want to see, success
My identity never defeating, me
But still I long for meaning, why

Go
Someday

Throw down the veil, the facade
Is this who you want to be, a fucking failure like me
I can't understand how I got here
A million supporting hands, a million snakes in the grass

You don't understand me
You don't support me

Erased from the machine
Erased from the machine
It will snow, does it hurt
Once again, know it does
It will snow, does it hurt
In our hearts, it's okay
