Inside the Horror - Chimaira

A blank expression

Pale eyes wide, cocked back

The sheer stagnation

Shame to all who thought this an act

The best years of this life

Felt wasted protecting a secret

Insecurities fed on like a rat

Depression

True fears of dependency

Affliction

The scars on such a fragile little body

Look

Take a look inside the horror

Take a look inside

Visualise the horrors inside

Burning sensation

To live just one day

In pure elation

Blame the ones who took this away

Can’t provide shelter from

The dangers festering outside

Can’t provide safety from

Monsters trapped within the mind

Depression

True fears of dependency

Affliction

The scars on such a fragile little body

Look

Take a look inside the horror

Take a look inside

Visualise the horrors inside

Shake the hand of God

As the blade moves closer

The reflection is brighter than the sun (Than the sun)

The perception becomes weaker

The sun starts to fade away (Fade away)

The blank expression on the blade

Skin calloused yet easy to pierce

On the floor, blood mixed with tears

Look

Take a look inside the horror

Take a look inside

Visualise the horrors inside

Shake the hand of God

As the blade moves closer

The reflection is brighter than the sun (Is brighter than the sun)

The perception becomes weaker

Weaker
