"State Of Slow Decay" lyrics

"State Of Slow Decay"

It is my reflection
But I know it's not me
I am becoming something else
I feel the weight of the key

This place is falling apart
There's no way back
Passing through the gates
A new shadow will reveal itself

The stories have run their course
None of them make sense
We are all someone else's fool
Buried in our own debris

Destroy the things you know
Destroy yourself in shame
Before tomorrow comes
Destroy everything

Faith alone won't sustain
We're in a state of slow decay
I hear forgive and forget
But I see there's no way

Seen it through the accolades
It all should be a great success
But there are so many burdens
World is heavy and full of distress

The stories have run their course
None of them make sense
We are all someone else's fool
Buried in our own debris

Destroy the things you know
Destroy yourself in shame
Before tomorrow comes
Destroy everything

Faith alone won't sustain
We're in a state of slow decay
I hear forgive and forget
But I see there's no way
