Memory of a Memory

Lost in echoes of the past

My soul imprisoned

Spell severing heart and mind

Returning righteous visions

With holy demons revealed

Surreal evils of the light

Sequestered in solace

Taught to trust in silence

True form meant to be concealed

Awake at last to witness this plight

A most morbid sight on the blackest night

A figure of death personified

Killing all that I had held as mine

All alone

In this home

All i've loved

Dead and gone

All alone

In this home

All i've loved

Dead and gone

A memory of a memory

Is all that I have left to hold

Though I'm trying not to lose my grip

These fragments begin to slip (they begin to slip)

A memory of a memory

Is all that I have left in my heart

In my hands it falls apart

My reality begins to twist

Seeing now it's all a lie

Your deception crumbling

Broken your grasp on me

A cult of crooked cowards

Killing to cleanse the wicked

Your salvation is our damnation

I'm not

I'm not wrong

You're all backwards

Its hate that feeds your god

All I've loved

I've become

A memory of a memory

Is all that I have left to hold

Though I'm trying not to lose my grip

These fragments begin to slip

A memory of a memory

Is all that I have left

How could you do this to me

The agony of your empathy

Your way of life is crushing me

Forever in hell I'd rather be

At least from you I'd be set free

And when it all turns black

I will be the last thing you see

In a memory

Of a memory lost
