Inside - Decadence

Waking up, was that a dream?

A living nightmare’s all I see

The strongest one of them all

Laying there, pushed to fall

I collect my final strength

It’s not enough, there’s so much left

I want to give it away

To make the past stay

I see it right before me

There, open, standing with pride

Like a red healthy looking apple

Beautiful but rotten inside

Lost in damned metastasis

Should have been anything but this

My tears will no more help

All that’s left is to fight death

I so desperately want to give

Back the strength to make you live

Gone, is no word for me

Stay, is the one I accept to see

Why did it choose this way

Please don’t leave, just stay

If you are taken away

My roots are cut from me

I see it right before me

There, open, standing with pride

Like a red healthy looking apple

Beautiful but rotten inside

Lost in damned metastasis

Should have been anything but this

My tears will no more help

All that’s left is to fight death

This vicious silent killer

Wants to block every way of return

Eating inside, slowly by time

You have to be saved now

I see you smile once again

I know, you know it’s not a game

It’s all there in your mind

You have to leave it all behind

Inside me forever lay

My memories, my hope will stay

I want you to pull it through

Fight, kill, recover, prove

I see it right before me

There, open, standing with pride

Like a red healthy looking apple

Beautiful but rotten inside

Lost in damned metastasis

Should have been anything but this

My tears will no more help

I don’t want you to go
