Bleakhouse Lyrics - Transcend The Rubicon - Benediction

Cut, dissected from within 

Like clockwork run the cells 

An unearthly silent din 

A constant toll of bells 

Mocking laughter evermore 

No sight of a refrain 

Waiting on my lonely quest 

Asylum of the brain 

Brain 

The darkest caverns of my mind 

Hold terrors so consuming 

Look within and soon you'll find 

Your psyche I'm subsuming 

More than flesh and blood can bear 

Ensnared within my brain 

Eyes in fear, eyes in terror 

Adversity is pain 

Adversity is pain 

Pain... 

Within the faculty of fools 

Leering warders, intimidation 

Playing games at all my rules 

Is feeding their frustration 

The blood inside my temples pulsing 

While I'm locked away 

Thoughts within my head convulsing 

For the time my captors pay 

Stop the torment, cut me loose 

Unbind me from my chains 

Before my eyes a veil of mist 

Encompassing and grey 

Once again 

Momentarily free of pain 

Pain... 

Pain... 

Pain... 

Stop the pain and rip me open 

Tear out my tormentors 

Release me from agony 

Blinding my nerve centres 

Only known emotions 

Are the anger and the sadness 

Overshadowed totally by 

Unrevokable madness 

Held inside this sterile box 

My thoughts turn now to charnel 

Fantasise, yet I remain 

Still locked inside eternal 

I'll not escape but I will wait 

Patience will run true 

Visitation you will see 

This madness is in you
