APHYXION LYRICS

1. Fork Tongued

Every lie I make
Everything I fake
It starts to get true in my head
But if I came clean
If I broke the routine
You would wish we never met

Fork tongued
I'm sorry that I lost myself
Fork tongued
For living life in disguise
Please pull me out of this river of deceit
Without you I am incomplete
Fork tongued
I'm incomplete

Too proud to admit
I've reached the bottom again
I wish I could reach out for help
If I came clean
If I broke the routine
You would never understand

Fork tongued
I'm sorry that I lost myself
Fork tongued
For living life in disguise
Please pull me out of this river of deceit
Without you I am incomplete
Fork tongued
I'm incomplete

I can't look in your eyes
The guilt is killing me
Living my life in disguise
The guilt is killing me
I'm sorry that I lost myself
I'm sorry that I lose myself
I'm sorry that I lose myself

Fork tongued
I'm sorry that I lost myself
Fork tongued
For living life in disguise
Please pull me out of this river of deceit
Without you I am incomplete
Fork tongued
I'm incomplete

2. Sleepwalkers

Sleepwalkers
Never speak of the world
We dream about life
Sleepwalkers
Afraid of colors
We hide our smiles

[Bro:]
Pinching my arm, just to let myself know I'm awake
Drugged by the world, stunned by the choices we made

[Omkvæd:]
We're not living life enough to die
Barely breathing, barely alive
We're not living life enough to die
We are the sleepwalkers of our time
Stuck in a place between sleep and awake
I'm barely breathing, there's nothing left
We're not living life enough to die
We are the sleepwalkers of our time

Sleepwalkers
Can't stand alone,
Always look to the ground
Sleepwalkers
Don't dare to be themselves
At most someone else

[Bro:]
Pinching my arm, just to let myself know I'm awake
Drugged by the world, stunned by the choices we made

[Omkvæd:]
We're not living life enough to die
Barely breathing, barely alive
We're not living life enough to die
We are the sleepwalkers of our time
Stuck in a place between sleep and awake
I'm barely breathing, there's nothing left
We're not living life enough to die
We are the sleepwalkers of our time

This world has derailed my mind
I ask myself, what is really worth to save?
Clouded thoughts closing in from behind
Adding shadows to the walls of the cave
We're not living life enough to die,
We're not living life enough to die

[Omkvæd:]
We're not living life enough to die
Barely breathing, barely alive
We're not living life enough to die
We are the sleepwalkers of our time
Stuck in a place between sleep and awake
We're barely breathing, we have no feeling
We're not living life enough to die
We are the sleepwalkers of our time

3. Restless Nights

It's hard to even think
The darkness covering my thoughts
My eyes start to blink
I'm over-thinking everything
4 AM knows all my secrets
Insomniac brain overload
Paranoia keeping me sleepless
My head is gonna explode

[Omkvæd:]
Dreams like reflections
Of the future I wasn't given
Sleepless infection
Why can't I just give in

My mind works the night shift
So tired I can't move a limb
My eyes start to blink
I'm over-thinking everything
4 AM knows all my secrets
Insomniac brain overload
Paranoia keeping me sleepless
My head is gonna explode

[Omkvæd:]
Dreams like reflections
Of the future I wasn't given
Sleepless infection
Why can't I just give in
These are my restless nights
These are my eternal fights
A sleepless infection
Why can't I just give in

Now it's 5 AM, fucking 5 AM
The dawn is under the horizon
So tired I can't move a limb
I'm over-thinking everything…
I'm over-thinking everything…
I'm over-thinking everything…

[Omkvæd:]
Dreams like reflections
Of the future I wasn't given
Sleepless infection
Why can't I just give in
These are my restless nights
These are my eternal fights
A sleepless infection
Why can't I just give in
Restless nights

4. Crown Of Thorns

Bright and early, I'm awake again
For my daily race, never ending chase
Gotta slow down, gotta get a feel
I'm slowly starting to self-debase

Can't step out of the wheel, although I know
There are other ways to meet my craze
For too long time, too much on my mind
I'm slowly starting to self-debase

[Bro:]
We all have demons, I choose to feed mine

[Omkvæd:]
Now I've driven myself to the ground
Thought I had the bull by the horns, this is a lesson to me
I wear my crown of thorns
I thought I had the bull by the horns, the bull by the horns

It worked out fine for so many years,
On the edge of myself everyday
Gotta slow down, gotta get a feel
I'm slowly starting to self-debase
What have I done? What have I become?
Another fucking mule, a slave of income?
For too long time, too much on my mind
I'm slowly starting to self-debase

[Bro:]
We all have demons, I chose to feed mine

[Omkvæd:]
Now I've driven myself to the ground
Thought I had the bull by the horns, this is a lesson to me
I wear my crown of thorns
I thought I had the bull by the horns, the bull by the horns
This is a lesson to me, I can't step out of the wheel
Got to slow down, I've got to get a feel
I wear my crown of thorns
I thought I had the bull by the horns, the bull by the horns

Oh, we all have demons and we like to feed 'em
Yes, we love our demons and we like to feed 'em

[Omkvæd:]
Now I've driven myself to the ground
Thought I had the bull by the horns, this is a lesson to me
I wear my crown of thorns
I thought I had the bull by the horns, the bull by the horns
This is a lesson to me, I can't step out of the wheel
Got to slow down, I've got to get a feel
I wear my crown of thorns
I thought I had the bull by the horns, the bull by the horns

5. Happily Apathetic

A tear sees its chance
In a moment's imbalance
My thoughts has bound my words
I've looked beyond horizons
For happiness, my call
Who will catch me when I fall?

[Bro:]
I want to be indifferent
Feel nothing at all

[Omkvæd:]
'Cause I got no hope, hearts not listening
All my dreams are gone, 'cause I got no faith
Can't do this anymore, I know it's my own fault
Got no faith no hope in this broken home
I just wanna feel so happily apathetic

I've spend my whole life
Living up to expectations
Of this wrecked world
I've looked beyond horizons
For happiness, my call
Who will catch me when I fall?

[Bro:]
I want to be indifferent
Feel nothing at all

[Omkvæd:]
'Cause I got no hope, hearts not listening
All my dreams are gone, 'cause I got no faith
Can't do this anymore, I know it's my own fault
Got no faith no hope in this broken home
I just wanna feel so happily apathetic

Is there any truth in my dreams?
Is there any weight in my words?
Is there any light in my eyes?
Or am I spinning lies?

[Bro:]
I want to be indifferent
Feel nothing at all

[Omkvæd:]
'Cause I got no hope, hearts not listening
All my dreams are gone, 'cause I got no faith
Can't do this anymore, I know it's my own fault
Got no faith no hope in this broken home
I just wanna feel so happily apathetic

6. A Gap Of Sky

I haven't slept for three days
When I close my eyes, nightmares come alive
Instead I try to stay awake
See if I can make it through another day

[Bro:]
I keep pushing the thoughts away
I'm gonna take one day at a time
But my thoughts keep going astray
To a place that I cannot hide away

[Omkvæd:]
I keep looking for a gap of sky
I keep looking for reasons to stay alive
I wanna live, not hardly survive
I keep looking for a gap of sky

Sometimes I pinch myself
To see if I recall, still feel at all
Physical pain, cruel disharmony
Trying to make it through another day

[Omkvæd:]
I keep looking for a gap of sky
I keep looking for reasons to stay alive
I wanna live, not hardly survive
I keep looking for a gap of sky

If I could try again
Take a different path
Stay in the slow lane
Maybe I would find a way

[Omkvæd:]
I keep looking for a gap of sky
I keep looking for reasons to stay alive
I wanna live, not hardly survive
I keep looking for a gap of sky

7. Sedate Myself

The easy solution to derail my mind
To escape from reality
The easy solution to leave behind
A mind entwined in agony
I know it's not the way, I know it's not alright,
I can't help myself, I know it's not alright
I know there's help out there, I know there's people who care
But I can't reach them

[Bro:]
I can't feel my fucking face, everything becomes so numb this way

[Omkvæd:]
Sedate myself
Escaping from reality
Sedate myself
To feel free, oh to feel free
I dug myself a hole to deep
To numb my pain, to fall asleep
Sedate myself
To feel free, oh to feel free

I am looking straight in the carnival mirror
Watch my demons come clearer
All is centered around one thing
It's drawing me nearer every day

I know it's not the way, I know it's not alright
This is who I am, I know it's not alright
At least that's what I tell myself every day
To make the thoughts go away

[Bro:]
I can't feel my fucking face, everything becomes so numb this way

[Omkvæd:]
Sedate myself
Escaping from reality
Sedate myself
To feel free, oh to feel free
I dug myself a hole to deep
To numb my pain, to fall asleep
Sedate myself
To feel free, oh to feel free

The days are blurring out, but it's better this way
Just one more moment of precious silence
To keep from hurting, to keep my thoughts at bay
I sedate myself every single fucking day
At some point this poison will sting
At some point this poison will sting

[Omkvæd:]
Sedate myself
Escaping from reality
Sedate myself
To feel free, oh to feel free
I dug myself a hole to deep
To numb my pain, to fall asleep
Sedate myself
To feel free, oh to feel free
To feel free, oh to feel free
I dug myself a hole to deep
To numb my pain, to fall asleep
Sedate myself
To feel free, oh to feel free

8. Pain

Have you met your demons?
Have you felt real pain?
Have you fought yourself so hard, that your body collapsed?

Have you tried to drown, with your head above water?
Felt life leave from your lungs, felt your body's collapse?

[Omkvæd:]
Have you really felt the pain?
Have you ever felt that you were here in vein?
Loosing yourself, into this hell
So tell me have you ever really felt the pain?

Have you felt you were asleep, when you were really awake?
Have you been trapped in a nightmare, that kept repeating itself?

Have you ever felt your heart pounding through your chest
From when you wake up 'til you go to bed?
Loose yourself in agony
This is your brand new reality

[Omkvæd:]
Have you really felt the pain?
Have you ever felt that you were here in vein?
Loosing yourself, into this hell
So tell me have you ever really felt the pain?

Dolor

[Omkvæd:]
Have you really felt the pain?
Have you ever felt that you were here in vein?
Loosing yourself, into this hell
So tell me have you ever really felt the pain?

9. No Man Is An Island

No man is an island

I can't get too close
Afraid to be hurt again
But I hate being on my own
Driving myself insane
I haven't been outside my door
For more than a week (for more than a week)
My mind in a state of war
Solitude I seek (solitude I seek)

[Bro:]
I won't wait for them to cut me up, to bring me down

[Omkvæd:]
I didn't choose for it to be this way
But now I'm by myself again
I fortify myself in my decay
My ship is sinking, no man is an island
No man, no man is an island
No man, no man is an island
No man, no man is an island
My ship is sinking, no man is an island

I can't hear my soul
Everyone is talking shit
I choose to be on my own
About to lose it all
I haven't been outside my door
For more than a week (for more than a week)
My mind in a state of war
Solitude I seek (solitude I seek)

[Bro:]
I won't wait for them to cut me up, to bring me down

[Omkvæd:]
I didn't choose for it to be this way
But now I'm by myself again
I fortify myself in my decay
My ship is sinking, no man is an island
No man, no man is an island
No man, no man is an island
No man, no man is an island
My ship is sinking, no man is an island

The noise of constant silence
This solitude is strangling me
The weight of my own existence
Pulling me down, burying me

[Omkvæd:]
I didn't choose for it to be this way
But now I'm by myself again
I fortify myself in my decay
My ship is sinking, no man is an island
No man, no man is an island
No man, no man is an island
No man, no man is an island
My ship is sinking, no man is an island

10. Stronger In The End

I was living, but I was never breathing
This shit's got me broken up
I never say a thing, but inside I'm screaming
Just make this feeling stop

[Bro:]
Just when I think I can't hold it any longer
This is making me stronger

[Omkvæd:]
I'll rise up like the day, unafraid
With a will to fight in spite of my pain
I will do it all over again
I will be stronger in the end

I do not know how to surrender
'Cause my whole life's been a fight
Oh, and I try, try to remember
How it feels to be alive

[Bro:]
Just when I think I can't hold it any longer
This is making me stronger

[Omkvæd:]
I'll rise up like the day, unafraid
With a will to fight in spite of my pain
I will do it all over again
I will be stronger in the end

I might have to bend
But I'm not gonna break
And I won't allow it to drown me again

[Bro:]
Just when I think I can't hold it in any longer
This is making me stronger

[Omkvæd:]
I'll rise up like the day, unafraid
With a will to fight in spite of my pain
I will do it all over again
I will be stronger in the end

11. Void

It comes in waves
My heart is racing out of control
The weight of this world
The weight of this world is pushing me down
A stifling feel,
My body is set aside, petrified
The pain in my head
The pain in my head, this feels like the end

[Bro:]
Don't let it suck me in, don't let it take possession of me

[Omkvæd:]
Whirled into the void
I can't drag myself out, this feels like the end
'Cause I'm whirled into the void
Don't let it suck me in, oh this feels like the end
'Cause I'm whirled into…

The fear of loss
I'm short out of breath, so tight in my throat
It feels so unreal
It feels so unreal, so out of this world
A stifling feel,
My body is set aside, petrified
The pain in my head
The pain in my head, this feels like the end

[Bro:]
Don't let it suck me in, don't let it take possession of me

[Omkvæd:]
Whirled into the void
I can't drag myself out, this feels like the end
'Cause I'm whirled into the void
Don't let it suck me in, oh this feels like the end
'Cause I'm whirled into the void

My whole body shaking, can't feel my legs
Please just bring me back home
Paralyzed, afraid to die, can't feel a thing
My mind is trapped where my demons roam

[Omkvæd:]
Whirled into the void
I can't drag myself out, this feels like the end
'Cause I'm whirled into the void
Don't let it suck me in, oh this feels like the end
'Cause I'm whirled into the void
