    Noose

    by: Eclipse Eternal

    Born to smother your hope born to strangle your will
    Every word that I say, a thousand shades grey
    Wrapping you in despair, a steady rot and decay
    Know that there is an exit, Know that I am the noose
    Hanging always near
    Know that I am the noose
    Speaking not in tongues but in truth
    In a world of concrete and worthless people
    Know that I am the noose
    Never judging always waiting
    Know that I am the noose
    In a world of shit as you drown in piss
    Know that I am the noose, Know that I am the noose
    No light in my darkness, No future, No hope
    I did not ask for this but this is who I am
    My presence like disease and you an open wound
    I did not ask for this but this is what I am
    A darkness without light
    An end always in sight
    Know that there is an exit Know that I am the noose
    Born to smother your hope
    Born to strangle your will
    Every word that I say, a thousand shades of grey
    Wrapping you in despair, a steady rot and decay
    Know that there is an exit Know that I am the noose
    My presence like disease
    And you an open wound
    I did not ask for this but this is what I am
    A darkness in the light An end always in sight
    Know that there is an exit
    Know that there is a noose
    As you life slowly fades and you swing to and fro know
    that I feel nothing
