lyrics

Come inside this somber
House where hope erodes
It devours life within
Sullen decaying abode

You won’t find light here, it all just disappears
We walk on floors that groan with age with unseen grace
We long, oh, how we long for the taste of freedom from this place
But we pardon these walls as cruel time stalls and we accept our fate

Do you feel it? That’s permanence
Do you ever feel like this is purposeless?
Oh, we’ve grown so cold, and I just want to feel
All this time spent, it’s never been enough to heal

Withered bodies, flesh and bone
Confined inside a mass of brick and stone
Together so long, yet still alone
I cannot comprehend how distant we have grown
No more pretense, no reason to pretend
We try so hard to mend, just to tear again
If, deeper, we are forced to descend
This place will lower us till we find the end

Permanence!

Come inside this bitter
Place where warmth erodes
It devours light within
Leaving nothing but the cold

And we just want to get out
Our bleeding finger tips still
Claw at the walls
And we just want to be
Anywhere else
Bitter permanence

All I ask is that you hold on
The light will come, it won’t be long
