Paroles de Perdition

I can't recall a time when sanity Wrapped her arms around my soul This mask of flesh cannot conceal The fear that makes my blood run cold I lie awake at night and watch my shattered dreams Cascade hopelessly away A daily souvenier of all the things That fill this life with sorrow and dismay Perdition (x 4) How long can this go on The vultures feast on what remains Of my pathetic shell Welcome to my perdition! My private hole deep in the empty pits of hell My sins have all returned They hearken me to the shadows From whence they came The time has come for me To face the cold embrace of all my shame Perdition (x 4)
