ACROSTICHON - ENGRAVED IN BLACK lyrics

There's no turning back

Back out of life

Life's adversity

A grotesque contradiction

Drowning in hope

Hope gets distorted

Distorted mental state

Feel the pain of life

I hold in contempt

Those without thoughts

A stupid kind of happyness

Not aware of what's to come

[CHORUS]

Scarce moment of joy

To good to be true

Feelings lighten up

Who will take it away

Thinking you've got friends

Feeling good inside

Comparative moments

Of joy will fade away

Gaining feelings

It feels so good inside

Comparative moments of joy

Will be taken away

[CHORUS]

People surrounding me

Don't understand my ways

Forcing myself into depression

[CHORUS]

Going through a mental hell

Bust up my own mind

Comparative moment of joy

Has been taken away

Time after time

Things seem so different

Don't grow attached to people

They'll take it all away
