Thief & the Hourglass - Stolas

I couldn’t sever your sadistic ways

I wanted to burn the things that I can’t change

If I could empty my brain

I’d never come back

As I rot in this cage

Like fresh mold wrapped in its discourse

Where everything said is being monitored

By the sadistic cold machine

Every breath incites that the flames burn bright

And death invites me every day

It came back around like clockwork

Translucent in its descent

I could see that all is one

And that hate was different

I could lean over and stare into my soul

It was deep like a well

And in the darkness, I heard a voice

It was telling me to leave

Every breath incites that the flames burn bright

And death invites me every day

I tell myself that I won’t forget you

As if never letting go would keep you around

After the way you looked in my eyes

And what you whispered in my ears

Even if it takes me my whole life

I will find you in the end

I will cross the great beyond, turn back time

We can live our lives again

As I rot in this cage

I can’t run.

I just wait

I made my escape

The voice caught up to me

It led me to my demons

It brought me to my knees

As I rot in this cage

I can’t run.

I just wait

As I rot in this cage

I can’t run.

I just wait

The truth burns bright

I will return
