Eclipse – Earth Groans – letras

Death claimed this day for its ownThe life I had planned is now goneThe world around me fellEven the air around me has become my own fiendI fought, altercations I’ve spatTill my body had grown weakCursed were the things my hands builtBarren was the ground I planted my seedEverything meant nothing, and in nothingnessI found my new homeLoneliness and seclusion are my only company nowThey are the only ones that will walk this path with meMy tears, all I have for foodWoe and sorrow is my only song nowHas my faith slipped through the floorWhat’s left of my life, shambles in a dry wellOh GodWhen did my own strides take precedent over your sovereigntyWhen did my sights flip the scalesWhen did I become more and you became lessThis mess I made is a product of self-relianceAs I try to stand on these trembling legs I lean on youYou are the only constant in this wavering worldYou are the only hope that I have in my darkest of daysYou are my strength, my peace, when I have noneYou are the satisfaction, for my emptiness, for this emptinessTake away everything, revive this contrite heartWhen the wind blows dig your roots deepDig your roots deepThe light breeze that once entertained these leavesAre now vices gusting me into a heapNow I know I created an eclipseAll these days I’ve been so blindNow I know I cannot live with out the SonMy own desires blocking out the lightNow I knowThe life I had planned is now goneNothing compares your presence is worth moreNow I knowStrip it awayNothing compares I’d lose it all to gain everything
