Requiem

[Verse 1]
Flesh infused into metal
Regrettors ever regretful
Maybe not
I also see the resentful
[Verse 2]
Lorem ipsum dolor
Drinking in the horror
Sit amet
Descending unto me
[Verse 3]
RE-INSPECT ELEMENT
LIFE SIGNS INTELLIGENT
REQUESTS IRRELEVANT
BLOODSHED MUST CONTINUE
SO-CALLED BENEVOLENT
PRESENCE INEVIDENT
I'M NOT SO REVERENT
DESCENDING UNTO YOU
[Verse 4]
Maybe I'm just dreaming
Seeing is believing
Lifeblood leaking
Drinking ever dry
[Pre-Chorus]
Never to know why
I guess I'll never know
Was it a lie?
When you said we could hold onto hope?
[Chorus]
Reach for my hand, hold me my darling
Drown us in viscera beneath the stars
Weave a bouquet of withered flowers
Then will our star-crossed love be truly ours?
[Verse 5]
END IN SCREAMS, IN A WHIMPER
YOUR FINAL RITES ARE SO SIMPLE
I'LL DECIDE
WHY SHOULD WE END IN A WHIMPER?
[Verse 6]
DONEC ANTE DOLOR
DROWNING IN DISORDER
CURSUS IN
DESCENDING UNTO YOU
[Verse 7]
Gusts oh-so swiveling
Trust oh-so dwindling
Lust oh-so shimmering
Dust to dust, O city
Dusk skies, chill shivering
Hushed cries, still whimpering
Crushed by the withered king
Descending unto me
[Verse 8]
Maybe keep on screaming
Maybe he'll stop dreaming
​Hopeless singing, torturous refrain
[Pre-Chorus]
No stranger to pain
I guess you wouldn't know
It's such a shame
I insist on holding onto hope
[Chorus]
Reach for my hand, hold me my darling
Drown us in viscera beneath the stars
Weave a bouquet of withered flowers
Then will our star-crossed love be truly ours?
[Coda]
O gentle king, why the decorum?
Why do you march us blindly to the end?
No eulogy, no memory for a great king of love and dreams
No requiem
