Lyrics Requiem - The Gloom In The Corner

We've reached the end of an era
An era of failures, destruction and errors
When you put me in my grave
Bury me face down
So I can see
The hell I've made

All the stories I have told
Have been for everyone else but me
All the hardships, all the battles
Have been a march toward oblivion
Maybe when I die I'll be beautiful
Once the flowers grow from my grave

Why's it so hard to see I'm barely breathing?
Why's it so hard to see?

That it's hard to take a breath
When you're always drowning
That I'm prepared for death
(I'm prepared for death but is death prepared for me?)

Let the tears of God pour down
Though I'm sure they're tears of joy
Let my body and soul be destroyed
As the storm thunders in applause
Limbo's waiting for me
So let the pouring rain
Wash away all of me
So there can be sun a-

I'm stuck in a cycle of always trying to please
But what's the point of tryna please if you're never happy?
Worked myself down to my bones and you want the marrow
I can feel my soul leave
And now I'm hollow

Like a spider circling the drain
That used to dance on the ceiling

Let the tears of God pour down
Though I'm sure they're tears of joy
Let my body and soul be destroyed
As the storm thunders in applause
Limbo's waiting for me
So let the pouring rain
Wash away all of me
So there can be sun again
So there can be sun again

I've given everything I am and everything I'm not
The skies have opened up, but heaven won't have me
I know that when I dissipate, I have limbo waiting
And the dead that I owe will be expiated
There's something so precious in the pouring rain
That makes me forget the heartache and pain
That I put into words, lost in a sea of the same
Stories you'll forget once I finish my declaim

Let the tears of God pour down
Though I'm sure they're tears of joy
Let my body and soul be destroyed
As the storm thunders in applause
Limbo's waiting for me
So let the pouring rain
Wash away all of me
So there can be sun again

I'm just tired, so tired
Spilling my blood for words on a page
Once this requiem ends, forget my name
Let the tears of God pour down
Though I'm sure they're tears of joy
Let the pouring rain
Wash away all of me
