Lyrics
[Verse 1]
 * Cold seems crippling
 * Lame meander through corridors
 * Aroma's thick with age
 * Mark off the day

[Refrain]
 * Reflections of my life are fading
 * Pull me out of body
 * Don't want it
 * Don't want in
 * Feeble, frail and rotting
 * Descending
 * I'm lost in a structure
 * That's collapsing
 * Don't want it
 * Cast into
 * Maker take the body
 * Don't want, it wants me

[Verse 2]
 * Past has found its place
 * Salvation is no more
 * Will god accept my peace?
 * Bleach will pardon me

[Refrain]
 * Reflections of my life are fading
 * Pull me out of body
 * Don't want it
 * Don't want in
 * Feeble, frail and rotting
 * Descending
 * I'm lost in a structure
 * That's collapsing
 * Don't want it
 * Cast into
 * Maker take the body
 * Don't want, it wants me

[Chorus 1]
 * I just want to run
 * Fly kites, wrestle, jump and play
 * Swim through waves that crash to shore
 * Memories in me, cocooned in misery

[Bridge]
 * I'm sick and tired
 * Of embracing reflections of past time
 * Receive me or cast me away
 * God, please take me away
 * Resistance futile, suicidal ideas
 * I will crucify my own being
 * Satisfy selfish needs, fuck the deities
 * Justify my own right to what's waiting for me
 * On the other side, the time has come
 * Lock and load
 * I'm coming (I'm coming)
 * I'm coming (I'm coming)
 * I'm coming (I'm coming)
 * I'm coming, I'm coming home

[Pre-Chorus]
 * Pull me out of body
 * Don't want it, don't want in
 * Pull me out of body
 * Don't want it, don't want in
 * Pull me out of body
 * Don't want it, don't want in
 * Feeble, frail and rotting
 * Descending
 * I'm lost in a structure
 * That's collapsing
 * Descending, don't want it
 * Maker take the body
 * Don't want
 * It wants me
 * Pull me out of body
 * Don't want it, don't want in
 * Feeble, frail and rotting
 * Descending
 * I'm lost in a structure
 * That's collapsing
 * Descending, don't want it
 * Maker take the body
 * Don't want
 * It wants me

[Chorus 1]
 * I just want to run
 * Fly kites, wrestle, jump and play
 * Swim through waves that crash to shore
 * Memories in me, cocooned in misery

[Chorus 2]
 * The darkness overcomes
 * Soul soars to the other plane
 * Existence past the door
 * I sail through purgatory's bay

[Outro]
 * I asked a god for poison, cradle me
 * Sown to my dreams, souls searching
 * Death blossoms where clouds lie over me
 * Held in God's hands, death blooming


 * Dark for fear of failure
 * An inner gloom as wide as an eye and fermenting
 * Roiling hate
 * Death grip in my veins
 * Unveiling rancid petals flowering forth foul nectar
 * The space between a blink and a tear
 * Death blooms
