F.F.I. - Still Remains

Awake

This lack of sleep is killing me

Running from myself armed to the teeth

In a dream I become the hunted, stalked by my own hand

There is a candle burning from both ends

Put me down.

Someone put me under.

Say goodbye to validity

Awake until our final day

Until a black sun rises up

A blood red tide will sweep us all away

There is no end in sight

Until I walk this cold earth alone

This absent sleep is cutting deep, it’s killing me

Searching for an end to exhaustion armed to the teeth

In a dream I can’t recall what never was

The peace I never held.

The comfort of silence

Awake until our final day

Until a black sun rises up

A blood red tide will sweep us all away

Vigilance eating it’s way through like acid.

Nothing will stand

Sinking lower and lower… Everything turns black…

And my sight is lost
