No Escape

from The Gates of Castle Black by PLC

/

lyrics

Halfway off the edge of madness
We’re here once again

Devils gnawing at my fingertips
To get me to descend

No more,
I can’t take it
I’ve tried once again

My grip has been steadily slipping
With each word they’ve said

Whispers crawling in my skull As though
They were writhing worms

Barring their fangs and gnashing away
At my final threads.

I can’t break free
I cannot escape
I’m a slave inside of my own beliefs

Am I still me?
I cannot escape
As I lose my grip on reality

Fingernails are broken at the tips
As i grit my teeth

Take the pain but the blood is spilling
As we get near the end

One slip
I can't take it
I feel I'm falling again

My grip
I'm losing it
And then I let it end

As I break free
I have now escaped
As I lose my grip on reality

Now, I'm free.
Finally
The chains have been heavy
But now I'm stronger

From the weight of the world
Trying to hold me down
Believing there was
NO ESCAPE

And now
As we fall into the abyss

The wonders of the world
Come into focus

Beyond the lensing
We are swallowed whole

And so, consumed
Are we freed?

Forever trapped inside this prison
Is there a reason why I feel forsaken

There has to be a way for me to get out
My sanity needs me to break free

You can’t run or hide
From what’s in your mind
You can’t be set free
There is NO ESCAPE

There's no escape from the gravity
That we've been lured in

We're only going in deeper
Because there is no end

The pull is infinite to resist
There is no leaving here

My mind is only free to exist
Purely within this sphere

I can’t break free
I cannot escape
I’m a slave inside of my own beliefs

Am I still me?
I cannot escape
As I lose my grip on reality

Now, I'm free.
Finally
The chains have been heavy
But now I'm stronger

From the weight of the world
Trying to hold me down
Believing there was NO ESCAPE
