lyrics

infected by a virus
close to demise
within barriers of sleep
the terror unfolds

bound to a bed as your thoughts start to cease
body far from convalescence
suddenly perishing screams reach your dreams
your heartbeat is getting faster
grotesque..

fear of the unknown - altered reality
curiosity, closing in, take my hand

behind closed eyes, a world, a second life
if it's just a dream, what does it mean?
your body is twitching and cold
your breath is getting hectic and loud

behind closed eyes, you recognize
within it becomes real, this morbid realm

grotesque dreaming

you keep on floating - deeper just soon - to find yourself alone
subliminal labyrinth, increasing anxiousness, but there's no place to hide

blinded by fear you fight this current
is that retribution?

the stench of human debris
heap of subconscious sediments
visions of inner carnage

sudden step towards death
this mortal coil reject
watch them medicate your cooling corpse
covered in tubes

at once you reach critical state again
prescious life returns, sleeping fitfully
repeated electric shocks
forcing life back to it's twitching shell

silence sets in, caressing fear
as you realize the end is near
awake
