"The Witch's Heart" - Catharsis.



He survived, but his destiny burned off in the blast
Disillusion tore off his wings, and when he stepped outside
Into childhood's end, and the moon was so bright
It looked like a white hole punched through the cape of night
But from that moment forth a star was just a star
And nothing more...

And the morning came, and the sun did rise
But he was trapped in the corridors where it spent the night
And he could not, or he would not hear our cries

So take everything, break everything, !*++ everything, fake everything
It's all nothing if you want, but that's not what I want
I'd give anything to see you feel again... once more!

Stand alone
Beside you
Listening for a sign of life from inside of you
Suffering some gift of god
Pursuing, hunting you

Yes, life is sour when you hit the ground
Moments wasted, loves gone foul
However sweet the fruit, the bitter core
And nausea for desert

So !*++ everything, take everything, fake everything, break everything
When you've been broken, when you've brought low
You want to smash everything, those who still care most of all

And I can see the witches, burning in your eyes
But they're not the ones who sold you these lies
We're not the ones who bound your hands
And turned the spears in your side

May the kings all drown in the blood of their conquests
And the flags all die at the tops of their poles
May the gluttons be impaled upon the ribs of the starving
And the priests all sell their souls
May the dreamers all awaken in a world that is empty
May the lovers betray and be betrayed
May the poets all choke on their own sweet lies
And all bow before their fates

May the seekers wander lost through the valleys and the deserts (Bring me hearts - I'll break them)
And lay down to sleep upon stones (Give me poisons - I'll take them)
May the sick flourish and the healthy be afflicted (If I could)
And may rats fight over the bones (If I could)
May hate rule pitilessly over a world of the damned (Trade this ache)
Where the rivers cease to run (For indifference - All !**#%$ up)
Let the sun set forever on this broken heartland (With bitterness - All !**#%$ up)
Let the kingdom come... (All !**#%$ up)

Yeah take everything, fake everything, break everything, !*++ everything
Heart as black as the sun
One the day that will come when it never ever rises again

And where do you go when you've lost your way
Inside, and everywhere you turn it's all the same

Where do you go when there's nowhere to go
You froze in your tracks, something broke and you... gave up!

If you wanna live, then live!
Dance, sing, scream until your lungs bleed
Lift us up
Lift us up

And if you wanna die, die then!
Plunge deep into hell, with me clasped tight in your embrace
And we'll make an end to all this
But you don't wanna live, or die, do you?

And it makes me want to

Cry an ocean of tears to flow through these filthy streets
Stained with so many years
Of smothered hopes and desires denied
The faceless masses, paralyzed

To drown all we are, all we've ever been
Better cease to exist than to endure like this
And set you free, you and all your kind
To be free in death if not in life

But the rest is secrets, silence now
If night has fallen, sleep well
The rest is silence, secrets now
If night has fallen, sleep well

Sleep well.
