"Temple Of Lunacy" lyrics

"Temple Of Lunacy"

I renounce my duty to serve the world
For I have failed, failed to save myself
Pray for me
Even if I cannot see this tragedy
I am the eye of the tempest
With fury in my hand
Fuck this, I'm sick of feeling worthless
I bridge the gap between myself and the abyss

Psychosomatic
I fight the fear of death
Silhouettes are descending around me
I can't deliver what the world expects of me
What the world expects of me
Defeated by this disease

I conjure all the strength it takes
To defy adversity
But in my dreams, I'm dyin'
Show me freedom in my doubt
Trapped inside, I'm clawin' out
But here I am, still breathing

Now I am fluent in the language of the cynic
Drink from the mouth of deception
Through malice, I am born
Witness the true face of hypocrisy
Still, life resides in me
Still breathing

Psychosomatic
I fight the fear of death
Silhouettes are descending around me
I can't deliver
What the world expects of me
I crumble under the weight

Our cheap illusions fulfilling our needs
We're self defeatists with a hunger for greed

Our cheap illusions fulfilling our need
We're self defeatists with a hunger for greed

I conjure all the strength it takes
To defy adversity
But in my dreams, I'm dyin'
Show me freedom in my doubt
Trapped inside, I'm clawin' out
But here I am, still breathing

Between reality and what's real to me
Sits the temple of my lunacy
I crept around you for so long
But now I've found a home in me
