OBERRIS LYRICS

1. To Ashes

So hopeless
Limbless, floating slowly into death
Your eyes struck me, lashes soaked in blood
I’ll never give in to you
It’s the closest I’ve ever come
To living fantasy for the masochist in me
So I could scream in pain for love or be empty

At night I call for you
I remember your mouth forming the hate in my veins
And I have tried to leave you
And leave it all behind

And she would start with my nails
Remove all of my teeth so I can’t disagree
My tongue is shred to pieces, these lights grow low
I've thought it all through now
And all I see is her
Could I forgive myself such sacrifice?
I would give it all away just to know
What it’s like to be held

At night I call for you
I remember your mouth forming the hate in my veins
And I have tried to leave you
And leave it all behind
And leave you all behind
Safe from your grace

I will not follow your empty notions
Right through the lacerations you pierce with your unloving stare
Straight to the bone, so cold
Open up my eyes to see the prize at cost, you murderer
And teach me the depths; how we can be so low

Nowhere to run, at night I call for you
I remember your mouth forming the hate in my veins
Nowhere to hide, and I've tried to leave you
And leave you all behind

Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
Through a mouthful of blood I’m smiling
No place to go, it’s just what I like
Don't bother to help I’m fading
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
Through a mouthful of blood I’m smiling
No place to go, it’s just what I like
Don't bother to help I’m fading

2. The Unabiding

And life became so dreary and worthless
We live, we live
Suffering to stave endless darkness

It takes so many lies to realize
You don't know yourself
Too many lashings within
Have left you broken of will
Dont wait upon your savior’s fires
To neglect your own is to
Limit your entire life
You’re barely breathing as it is
Sometimes it’s better not to feel
Let the ocean drown out
Sometimes it’s better not to care

We’ve seen the end of life
We see it everyday
To kill for peace you would lose yourself
And live in decay

We’ve seen the endless night
Move quickly for the beasts that watch you
In time devour everything

But I won't kill for you

Become raceless, you're just a body
Become faceless and know nobody
Leave your name burried by the road
But you lie waiting for the end
You said there’s no place left to begin
You spend your time bored, bored to tears

And life became so dreary and worthless
We live, we live
Suffering to stave endless darkness

Burn, let the fire consume your form
Reduced to ashes you're born

We’ve seen the end of life
We see it everyday
To kill for peace you would lose yourself
And live in decay

We’ve seen the endless night
Move quickly for the beasts that watch you
In time devour everything

3. Red Star

This is going to hurt
No silence give me distractions
Anything to stop my thoughts of this
It's torture; trying to believe
That the last words we ever spoke
Would be the last we would ever know
My friend, I’m sorry again
I took for granted the time that we had

We fought for everything just to understand
I thought there would always be two shadows to cast

He cried to me “I've seen my soul”
But it gets hard at times to see
He’s gone but not lost

We spent eternity recounting our lives
Creating ourselves in the image of death
What is wrong with me, should this feel so unfair?
Shouldn't the path be clear?
I thought I would find you sitting with your guitar,
But I’m alone

He cried to me “I've seen my soul”
But it gets hard at times to see
He’s gone but not lost

Something faded away that night
No star could match it’s light
So many times he said to me
If I die I don't want them to cry
Just know that it’s okay that
I’ve moved on from this life

But I’m not ok with the absence
Left in the pictures of times
We had yet to have
But we don't, No we won't
Forget this life

He cried to me “I've seen my soul”
But it gets hard at times to see
He’s gone but not lost
Gone
