Stage 5: The Nightmare Lyrics by The Reticent

The Oubliette

2020

(Henry, did you really think there was a way out?)
No one’s listening
You’re alone now Henry
We will take
Everything
Starting with
Memories
Your true love
Remember she is dead?
We will
Take your hands
Take your legs
Take your lungs
Take your eyes
Paralyzed
Like an insect pinned in place
Though you feel it all
(Henry)
Steal from you that sweetest melody
Feel the tide drawing you further down
Here exists no more reverie
Just melancholy and woe
See now, your body won’t obey
Trapped inside an endless night
You'll never wake again...
Relive the darkest of all your days
Real and dream will cease to have a line
Watch as you burn without flame
Fugitive is hope
So pitiless are we
Here on this despondent shore
(Come on Henry, don't you remember?!)
Now or then
Then or now
Tell me Henry, Is it now or is it then?
The pitiful fragments of your mind
Won’t permit you to differentiate
All woe
Shall be
Visited upon you, Henry
No more light in your eyes
No more words from your lips
Rejoice in this mute hell
All this chaos concealed (you won’t reveal)
In this imprisoned mind
Left with no recourse (nowhere to go)
You will wish you could die
Death comes – so slowly in this blankness
You’ll beg – for it to all end
Hope leaves – all now extinguished
Trapped here – a corpse that can’t die
Sullen – your body a casket
Frozen – a glacial mind
Bottomless – perdition to dwell
Empty – is your hell
All woe
Shall be
Visited upon you, Henry
No more light in your eyes
No more words from your lips
Rejoice in this mute hell
All this chaos concealed (you won’t reveal)
In this imprisoned mind
Left with no recourse (no where to go)
You will wish you could die
There is no way out
