The Weight of Breathing Lyrics by Selbst

Relatos de Angustia

2020

In a life ruled by deceptions
Where no enjoyment is possible
Through this flesh
Where only a feeling
Of misery can be taken
No matter how much is sown
The temptation of abandonment
Seems so deep
The prayers are nothing more
Than empty shouts...
Empty shouts to the sky!
To heaven!
Prayers! Prayers!
Prayers are nothing more
Than empty shouts to heaven
Only one aged heart remains
Prayers are nothing more
Than empty shouts to heaven
Breaking like a crystal
After so much searching
How ironic it must be
To find peace
A tender feeling
Invades everything
It's the warm hug of death
That frees from the weight
Of existing
The gloomy and exalted ghosts of
Consciousness arise
The will is sunk in a total grief
A youth that was never worth it
There is no better version
Of the being
So the torment of breathing
Ought to cease
The torment ought to cease
