"Convulsions" lyrics

There is no escape

There is no escape
Lifeless, hopeless
Phantom pains
Taking away
My sense of me
At the brink of a fatality
The impulse will drive me insane

Stuck inside a shell
Hear me screaming for release
The sliver lining
Eradicating all the pain
Disoriented, confused and alone
Trapped and paralyzing my soul
Behold the sight of oblivion

Close my eyes
To see another light
I'll sleep when I find it
I won't give death the right to control my life

There is no escape
Phantom pain

I feel a thousand needles stabbing my skin
From my toes to the fingertips
Devoid, desensitized but intact
Overwhelmed as my vision fades to black

How did this come to be?
This cannot be the palpable reality
Frozen in time
A loss of words
Through the lack of composure

Close my eyes
To see another light
I'll sleep when I find it
I won't give death the right to control my life
And all my time
I'll sleep when I find it
I won't give death the right to control my life

I think I'm free
Free of harm's way
I'm so wrong, oh so wrong
I think I will die

A flash of light
Shines before me

This too shall pass
Only to come relapsing again
There is no escape
This too shall pass
Only to come relapsing again
There is no escape

Phantom pain
There is no escape
There is no escape

Close my eyes
To see another light
I'll sleep when I find it
I won't give death the right to control my life
And all my time
I'll sleep when I find it
I won't give death the right to control my life

I won't give death the right to control my life
I won't give death the right to control my life
