I Am the Void

Drink this water again

That runs by without memory

Where your name is lost

Drink and forget yourself

This featureless stream

That carries your face further on

These waters know you

It calls you by your one true name

Have you ever noticed

The spaces in-between

Where life is in recession

And agony begins?

I am the call

I speak inside of you

I am the void

That haunts you

I am the howl

That calls you out

I am the void

I am the... void!

You rest your weary head

On to the underworld

And let the silent whispers

Guide your waking dreams

In time with the pulse

Of what is long since gone

The beat of the fallen

Is cold already in your blood

The machinery of chaos

Comes alive in you

Chained to the grinding wheel

Of forces unseen

I am the call

I speak inside of you

I am the void

That haunts you

I am the howl

That calls you out

I am the void

I am the... void!

I am the void!

You have always been between another set of walls

Outside of which the world is watching down on you

Inside the silence speaks

Kept close to the endless alibi

Never reaching out

Never give in

I am the call

I speak inside of you

I am the void

That haunts you

I am the howl

That calls you out

I am the void

I am the void
