Requiem Testo

Testo Requiem

"We’ve reached the end of an era
An era of failures, destruction, and errors
When you put me in my grave
Bury me face down...

So I can see the hell I’ve made

All the stories I have told
Have been for everyone else but me;
All the hardships, all the battles
Have been a march toward oblivion
Maybe when I die I’ll be beautiful
Once the flowers grow from my gravе

Why’s it so hard to see I’m barely breathing?
Why’s it so hard to see...

That it’s hard to take a brеath when you’re always drowning?
I’m prepared for death;
I’m prepared for death but is death prepared for me?

Let the tears of god pour down
Though I’m sure they’re tears of joy
Let my body and soul be destroyed
As the storm thunders in applause
Limbo’s waiting for me
So let the pouring rain wash away
All of me so there can be sun a-
I’m stuck in a cycle of always trying to please
But what’s the point of trying to please if you’re never happy?
I’ve worked myself down to my bones and you want the marrow;
I can feel all the soul of me leave, and I’m nearly hollow

Like a spider circling the drain
That used to dance on the ceiling

Let the tears of god pour down
Though I’m sure they’re tears of joy
Let my body and soul be destroyed
As the storm thunders in applause
Limbo’s waiting for me
So let the pouring rain wash away
All of me so there can be sun again

I’ve given everything I am, and everything I’m not
The skies have opened up, but heaven won’t have me
I know that when I dissipate I have a Limbo waiting
And the dead that I owe will be expiated

There’s something so precious in the pouring rain
That makes me forget the heartache and pain
That I put into words, lost in a sea of the same
Stories that you will forget once I finish my declaim
Let the tears of god pour down
Though I’m sure they’re tears of joy
Let my body and soul be destroyed
While the storm thunders in applause
Limbo’s waiting for me
So let the pouring rain wash away
All of me so there can be sun again

I’m just tired, I’m so tired
Of spilling my blood for words on a page
Once this requiem ends
Forget my name

Let the tears of god pour down
Though I’m sure they’re tears of joy
Let the pouring rain wash away all of me."
