ROTTING SKY LYRICS
"The Burden of Flesh" (2007 Demo)
1. Everywhere, Eyes 2. My Labyrinth 3. Fortune 4. The Burden of Flesh 5. Three Storms
1. Everywhere, Eyes
There are eyes everywhere
They gaze upon misdeeds
The walls
The leaves
The sky
Witness to
My rape of self
There is no solace
I bleed in every possible way
In every language
Lifeless drops
They mean nothing
Turning brown with age
As the nightsky
closes its eyes at last
Their eyes will always follow me
Awake or dreaming
Alive or dead
2. My Labyrinth
Tunnel walls force me to her
This maze will take me
to hell
Another labyrinth awaits me there
I saw you dead
within those walls
Skyscrapers in your veins
Your blood polluted
3. Fortune
My heart is a weight
My soul is a weight
Goodbye
You will be
All I see
All I know
It's relentless
So absurd
I can't sleep
I can't know
My time in space
Sucking smoke
Coughing gray pieces of me
Fortune's slow
Rows of gold
Burdens grow
Futures sold
4. The Burden of Flesh
I am pure
When I am obscured
My face drips its flesh
Condensate
The mirror
I want to tear my face down
to the bone
One final act of bravery
The air resonates with guilt
Let it assume
The black wind is filtered
into every angle
the light attempts to use
No one could clean this soul
Leave me to pick my bones
I no longer need you
Without the burden of flesh
I can't see why I thought we were
above the dirt
5. Three Storms
