My Soul Underground

Verse I

Names are erased beneath decaying flesh

Time crowns itself with bones

Prayers are rusty nails in my throat

No shouting, only echo and collapse

Pre-Chorus

My eyes have grown accustomed to the darkness

Light is now an insult

Chorus

I buried hopes alive

The earth still stirs

This is not the end

This is the revelation of truth

Verse II

Silence speaks, blood is silent

Man praises his own grave

Conscience, a blunted knife

Each blow a little more empty

Chorus

I buried hopes alive

The earth still stirs

This is not the end

This is the revelation of truth

Outro

Do you hear…

there’s nowhere to run…

this darkness…

it was us…

and always…

it was here…
