Lorna Shore - Pain Remains (2022)

Set me free
Is this the place of my undoing
Set me free
Show me the way from this place

Take me away
Through the darkness, numb my pain
All I know is suffering, one foot in the grave

Bury the hatchet, another nail in the casket
My blood turns to ice beneath these barren skies

A glimpse of light shimmers this time
You guide the way through oblivion
This trail of thorns leads on
Get me out of this maze
This labyrinthian hell quakes

Set me free before I'm lost in the dark

Hopeless devoured by the shadows of my wake
The light slowly turning away from me

Is this the place of my undoing
Shine on me
Illuminate this crepuscular feeling

Show me the way from this place
Take me away through the darkness
All I am is all I'll ever be
All that's left
Melancholy

Bury the hatchet, another nail in the casket
My blood turns to ice beneath these barren skies

A glimpse of light shimmers
This time you guide the way through oblivion
This trail of thorns leads on
Get me out of this maze
This labyrinthian hell bellows

I can see the way out from the disconnect closing
Illuminate this godless space and pull me out
Liberate these ruins I've become

Set me free
Is this the place of my undoing
Set me free
Illuminate the crepuscular feeling Открыть страницу с текстом

Creations emanating between these shifting sands
The universe is turning in the palm of my hand
I will make the earthen clay exhuming breath of life
Behold the culmination of my regrets

Sentience
To err is human
To forgive divine
A blessing of life
Cursed to die

All will rise and fall, their flesh and bone
My sins and resolve permeate their desires
I am absolvеd within their design
My legacy will livе on

But is it enough to satisfy my legacy?

Millennia of waiting
Countless years come to pass
Separated from Chronos
This is my domain
I'm the face of death
My image, this eternal sin
Molded from everything
I hold within

Sentience
To err is human
To forgive divine
A blessing of life
Cursed to die

We play the same keys in different times
It's in our nature to die
Powerless to the forces outside of our reach
I'm nothing but a man within a dream

All will rise and fall, their flesh and bone
My sins and resolve permeate their desires

All will rise and fall, their flesh and bone
My sins and resolve permeate their desires
I am absolved within their design
My legacy will live on

But is it enough to satisfy my legacy?
But it's not enough, it's never enough to satisfy my legacy Открыть страницу с текстом

Sensation leaves as I'm drifting slowly
Illusions torn from my splintered veins
Reality shifts like pages turning in the wind
I'll become the sun
I'll become a god
I'll become the dreamer
Dreaming, frozen, in my anxious mind

Feeling slowly fades into plasticity
Is this the end or just the beginning?
Lucidity or nightmare unfolding?

My heart, my soul
My body has grown so cold
Converge
I crash into the Earth
Into the Earth

Into the Earth
Lost in the scape terrified
Break me free from this nightmare
Stifled by realms uncertain
I can't escape
Let me go, I'm fucking horrified
Now all my fears are personified

Numbed to the call of a broken idol
Descent of the mind, losing touch
Sensation leaves as I'm drifting slowly
Illusions torn from my splintered veins
Reality shifts like pages turning in the wind
I'll become the sun
I'll become a god
I'll become the dreamer

Feeling slowly fades into plasticity
Is this the end or just the beginning?
Lucidity or nightmare unfolding?

My heart, my soul
My body has grown so cold
Converge
I crash into the Earth
Into the Earth
Into the Earth

My heart, my soul
My body has grown so cold
Converge
I crash into the Earth
Into the Earth
Into the Earth

Hallucinations of familiar sensations envelope me in inebriation
The continuation of a world with no reins bound for destruction
Within this fevered dream

I will have forgotten
Releasing me
Vivify this world falls in my descent
Realizing this world is but projection of my mind Открыть страницу с текстом

Captivate me
Become my escape
I can't look away
You were my everything

If the past is just dust
Then the future could be our dream
If all we have is now, this eternity
Ignite my satisfaction, engulf me

We're dancing like flames, flickering in the night
We sway in time with the wind before melting away
You're far from my reach but not far out of sight
You know the way to my heart but you just play the strings again

Flicker like shadows dancing beyond the flame
Captivate, hypnotized by the fire in her eyes
You took me by surprise
And then you disappeared in the blink of an eye

Pull me into the pyre
Engulf me in flames
Captivate me, eidolon, gravity
Magnetic, pull me toward my ecstasy

We're dancing like flames, flickering in the night
We sway in time with the wind before melting away
You're far from my reach but not far out of sight
You know the way to my heart but you just play the strings again
Flicker like shadows dancing beyond the flames
Enchanting, mesmerized
Take what is left of my life
A wrinkle in time
Where did you go?

A wrinkle in time
Take what is left of my life
Before you go, show me what it's like to finally know
The face behind the silhouette
In this world I made to be infinite
But within the expanse, I finally see
A world without you isn't meant for me

Where do you go when I close my eyes?
What do you see looking back at me?
Am I just a ghost just like you, caught between the
Seams of two intertwining melodies? Открыть страницу с текстом

I'll disappear
I'll disappear
It's like the world I knew keeps passing
Unlike the void I've become

Picking up pieces left from another life
This fleeting memory is everything you left behind
I'm just a whisper, just a specter locked away in time
This purgatory is eating away at my mind

Left to wander, left to dissipate
Without you I will never be the same
Left to confide, insecurity
When you disappeared, you took a part of me
I see you
Ovеr and over
Far beyond me
I'm drifting away

Evеn inside a dream, this world
Has no meaning

And after all that I've done
After all of my pain
After all that I've become
Will I disappear?
Disappear
Like a ghost in the breeze
Like fading memories
Like the world you left
Was only just a dream
So I'll disappear
I'll disappear, I'll disappear

It's like the world I knew keeps passing
Unlike the void I've become

Letting go of perfection, another lie
This wretched melody is everything you left to die
I'm just a vacuum, just a fragment, an echo in time
This purgatory is eating away everything

Left to suffer, left without your place
Without you I will never be the same
Let me see you one more time
When you disappeared, you took a part of me
I see you
Over and over
Far beyond me
I'm drifting away

Even inside a dream, this world (This world)
Has no meaning

And after all that I've done
After all of my pain
After all that I've become
Will I disappear?
Disappear
Like a ghost in the breeze
Like fading memories
Like the world you left
Was only just a dream
So I'll disappear
I'll disappear, I'll disappear

And after all that I've done
After all of my pain
This fucking world disintegrates (I'll disappear)

And after all that I've done
After all of my pain
After all that I've become
Will I disappear?
Disappear (I'll disappear)
Like a ghost in the breeze
Like fading memories
Like the world you left
Was only just a dream
So I'll disappear (I'll disappear)
I'll disappear, I'll disappear Открыть страницу с текстом

Cursed by this apparition
Destined to take its place
A ceaseless existence born of my dream state
Manifested and pressed into sand
You’ve long been cemented
Distracted, impacted by the weight of the world
If this is everything then
I don‘t want to cut the swathe
Let the flames rise and bury me within this fog
An echo, a murmur -
A broken melody
I let go of my life but you werе just a dream

I’ll throw myself into the firе and burn away
Ridding this flesh of burden and pray I suffocate

I’ll salt the earth in a crimson blaze
The world will burn in my fall from grace
Witness the death of God
Hear the devil‘s choir as I leave the stage
In a sea of fire

If this is all I am then what’s the point
Of pacing life
Everything that I made became a waste of time
Expressive, depressive
I‘m caught up in a lie
Decisive, enticing
I’d rather fucking die

I’ll throw myself into the fire and burn away
Ridding this flesh of burden and pray I suffocate

I’ll salt the earth in a crimson blaze
The world will burn in my fall from grace
Witness the death of God
Hear the devil‘s choir as I leave the stage
In a sea of fire

I’ll damn this world to a sea of flames
Forsake the ground and let it bury me
You were nothing but a shackle
Now I can breathe
Let this fire rain down and bury me
Bury me, In a sea of flame
Forsake the ground then let it bury me
Let this fire rain down and damn this world

Fuck this existence
Bring me back to where it all began in the fall
Wake me up before I lose it all

Witness the death of God
Hear the devil‘s choir as I leave the stage
In a sea of fire
I’ll salt the earth in a crimson blaze
The world will burn in my fall from grace
Witness the death of God
Hear the devil‘s choir as I leave the stage
In a sea of fire

This is my epilogue - my soliloquy
Take this broken melody straight to the grave
Dancing like flames
After all that I’ve done
I’ll salt the earth and disappear in a sea of fire Открыть страницу с текстом

I am nothing but the sum of my regrets anchored
To this hollow shell numbness swallows me
Flooding horizons in a blaze of frost and snow

You can find me there wandering out of sight
In a place somewhere between the black and white
Where colors fade, desaturate and myopic gaze
Turns into endless nightfall

This world keeps taking pieces, dissolve this tundra
Is all I know this world keeps taking pieces
Alone I feel the void call to me

It comes in waves, turning like clockwork
Confine me to this empty waste I can't escape
Coasting dissociated upon the frozen current
Bleakness fills my clouded eyes yet I see right through
These withered hands, desensitized, burn in the frigid waste
I've spent too long staring into the abyss

Lost myself inside the day and night
Between the black and white
Look beyond the light, then you will find between the black and white

I am nothing but the sum of my regret
This world keeps taking pieces

It comes in waves, turning like clockwork
Confine me to this empty waste I can't escape
Coasting, dissociated upon the frozen current bleakness
Fills my clouded eyes, yet I see right through
These withered hands, desensitized, burn in the frigid waste
I've spent too long all alone

It comes in waves confine me to this empty waste
I can't escape
Coasting, dissociated
Upon the frozen current, bleakness fills my clouded eyes
Yet I see right through
These withered hands, desensitized, burn in the frigid waste
I've spent too long staring into nothingness

Lost myself inside the day and night
Between the black and white
Look beyond the light
I'm lost in time between the black and white

I am nothing I feel nothing

Lost myself inside the day and night
Between the black and white
Look beyond the light
You'll never find between the black and white

Lost in the folds inside the infinite dreamscape
On the precipice of where worlds collide
Remind me of the feeling lost in the distance
Cleanse me of this soulless existence Открыть страницу с текстом

What is life
But a fevered dream?
Their eyes are yet to open
The gears are set in place to guide me to affinity
Atrophy, the thorn of time's aging vine
Harrowing winds press the mesh and curse the flesh
Rotting away
But here in this reality, my thoughts transform fatality
An almost endless exploration of our cosmic minds
Perpetuated through the sands of time

Contort reality, distort fallacy, pave my way
Contort reality, resort to malady
This lucid dream lingers onward, indefinitely
I am one

Omnipotent
I am the one
Icarus
I'll touch the sun

As you sow
And so you shall reap
What is life, if but a fevered dream?
Restless nexus
My consensus
Striking at god at fucking will
Yet I am still not even satisfied
I fabricate, manipulate, incinerate, and duplicate
Restabilize the precipice, my arbitrary exodus inside
Where I confide, looking down on this steeple

Contort reality, distort fallacy, pave my way
Contort reality, resort to malady
This lucid dream lingers onward, indefinitely
I descend

Despairing plunge unto the omniverse
Sinking deeper
We relinquish pasts, as we forget the difference
Losing ourselves in the infinite
Despairing plunge unto the omniverse
Sinking deeper
We relinquish pasts, as we forget the difference
Losing ourselves
As we become

Omnipotent
I am the one
Icarus
I'll touch the sun
Omnipotent
Icarus
I'll eat the sun

These fragile wings will touch the sky (Touch the sky)
And paint the world in black and white (Black and white)
Bring forth the cleansing fires of rebirth
Recreating my image within the paradoxical

Burn in the embers of my fevered heart
Witness my omnipotence
Cursed judgment, devoid of this flesh, bring for my affinity
I am the omnipotent being

Icarus
Mmm, I'll touch the sun

Omnipotent
I am the one
Icarus
I'll touch the sun
Omnipotent
I am the one
Icarus
I'll eat the sun Открыть страницу с текстом

Take hold
Design this world

Wake up

Free fall unto this amalgamation
Freed from the tether of the cursed flesh
Enter a dominion of inquiry

Embellish the continuum condition, tow the line
Awaken from mortality, the sleeper inside

You fell far from grace, take hold of the dreamscape
Misplaced within the emotion, A parallel shift, a world in slow motion
Fall now in place, this world will never be
Face to face with death and life relative to the eye
This is the world inside your mind

Illusions of realms, disguised smoke and mirrors, tuning the inner eye
The link the infinite lies within the dreamscape

Open your mind, let it consume
Your flesh dissolve within the infinite
The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of all
Their nightmares

Face your duality, let go and fall into a dream
Celestial manifestations sensate within your line
Welcome a new god; the unconscious prime
Transcending

You fell far from grace, take hold of the dreamscape
Misplaced within the emotion, A parallel shift, a world in slow motion
Fall now in place, this world will never be
Face to face with death and life relative to the eye
This is the world inside your mind

Illusions of realms, disguised smoke and mirrors, tuning the inner eye
The link the infinite lies within the dreamscape

Witness a world forever changing, where restless mind idles in creation
Don't look back, don't turn away
Embrace your new reality and feel the world slow down

Frozen in a world in slow motion, memories twist
Into anonymity, cloaked familiarity as the dream
Begins taking shape into metaphysical delineation
Within fall into a dream

Welcome this blessing and fall into lucidity
Like clay in the mud sculpting the plunge
Embracing the world and becoming the one
The architect - benevolent, accepting the material
World as enslavement, a fetter - a servant but
Here in this place you are attunement

Welcome back
Welcome back, O' sleeping dreamer
Embrace the fall Открыть страницу с текстом

Behold displacement, cremation
Rising from devastation
From embers of creation unto death
All shall return

Stoking fires and guiding flames
Burn like candles from both ends
Choke on ashes and be cleansed
All you are is all you've ever been

Bathe in baptismal fire
Coat the world in my disease
Remorseless, drenched in ire
I'll flood the world in kerosene
There's no sin
Now I am one within mе
There's no pain
It ends thе same

I've fallen like the cursed angel
Beginnings ignite the sky
Fall now like ash before me
Devoured by the sea
Fill the hole in my chest I have manifested
Behold the new king

Again and again I will pretend I can feel the flame
Again and again I will attempt to hide this pain

Guide the flames into the jaws of the beast
We are not one in the same

Atop the crimson pyre
Smoldering and ashen wings
Flay me of my desire
I feel nothing

There's no sin
Now I am one within me
There's no pain
It ends the same

I've fallen like the cursed angel
Beginnings ignite the sky
Fall now like ash before me
Devoured by the sea
Fill the hole in my chest I have manifested
Behold the new king

Again and again I will pretend I can feel the flame
Again and again I will attempt to hide

Behold displacement, cremation
Rising from devastation
From embers of creation unto death

All shall return to ash
Collapsing the stars
Watching the earth collide unsated
Drown in the fires of my intent
I'm smoldering
Drowning in shame
I am falling down
Into the flame
It's all I know
Heavy lies the crown of the king Открыть страницу с текстом
