lyrics

My curse continues to hound me
Like dogs at my heels
That never seems to tire

This nightmare takes hold of my body
And weakens me again
I wish for just one rest

It won't be granted
Not while I breath
Insignificant beings deserve less than the death they crave

I can't take this anymore
I won't fight it

Painajainen

Faced with desperation I cling to all that I can
See the void before me and it's calling yet again
Reality is blinding me I don't know what is real;
And I can't fucking sleep like this
I can't fucking sleep

Horrors forcing me awake again
I can feel them lingering
In my waking thoughts they drive a spike

And there is nothing I can do
To end this pointless feud
Between my body and my mind

I just want to sleep
