Monsters

from Avarice by April Uprising

lyrics

It’s always night in the tomb,
But still I never sleep.
It’s always night in the tomb,
But still I never sleep.

The monster haunts my dreams,
So now I never dream.

His ears are veiled by skin
So he can’t hear this world.
But his deafness shields him
From the sounds of pain he instills.

He finds joy in his creations,
Which he does not know are poison.
He fills my trances with his venom
And wonders why I scream.

It’s always night in the tomb,
But still I never sleep.

The monster haunts my dreams,
So now I never dream.

I wake up from my trance
And see that this world is a tomb
Where monsters feed
And children die.
(Why do we always save the monsters?)

Is there no one here to save me?
Here to help me?
Here to keep me from his clutch?
Here to help me?
(No one is here to save us.)

Oh no,
For there is no way out
Of this hell he’s made,
He lives in,
That he thrives in,
That becomes him, except for me.
(He thrives while I will die.)

Eyes tearing,
I glimpse surrender,
But if I sleep here,
I will never leave here.
(I will sleep when I feel the sun upon my face.)

I hunger for the sun.
I hunger for the sun.
I hunger for the sun.
I hunger for the sun.
