Lyrics Station Dysthymia - Down Through Earth

In days of dread
I held unto hope
Of a shelter in you,
Living and warm,
Human as you are.
No more to expect
What feeds distress,
Why must I endure the...

Pain of glorious days,
When I still dreamed of things.

Yet, silence rings
In my ears so painfully,
So a darker self
Keeps growing on me.

Away from self-integrity,
Feeling it slide past my perception.

My life is shifting down through the earth,
Longing for its rebirth.
Over me great walls close -
Sinking, sinking.
Flames, flames of bleak days
Before this tainting gaze.
Restless soul left to find
Deeper state of mind,
If I breathe. Last shallow dreams
Bereft and lifeless.

Into vast depths of searing introspection
Drag from my hole and fuel my lust for life
For life is a frame for apathy,
A frame for a graceful end.
