LYRICS FROM HELL

All Lyrics written and Created by Jimmy BagODonuts

Attempting Light

what happened to the days

when life meant something

when hope had purpose

and meaning was evident

wishing those days were here today

clearly they have become forgotten

just fixating on your death

no longer dealing with the present

slowly replaced by the burdens

of your selfless misery

I've watched you succumb to many a defeat

and to never knowing you needed 

a belief that i would stand by your side

for i know there's a soul being deprived

just fixating on your death

no longer dealing with the present

as all we have become is an arcane figment

I'll try to awaken you

I'll attempt to unburden you

from the frailties

of this existence

as a new life lies within arms reach

open your eyes and you will see

as a new life lies within arms reach

open your eyes and believe

take my hand escape their grasp

shun failures that depravity has

slowly replaced by the burdens

of your selfless misery

I've watched you succumb to many a defeat

and to never knowing you needed 

a belief that i would stand by your side

for i know there's a soul being deprived

stand aside as the tide washes over you

drowning sorrows breathing life into death

wishing those days were here today

for they have become forgotten

Of Lives Never Lost

Banishment becomes a virtue

Filled with remnants of fallacies

Believed to be disposable numbers

Suffering (prostration)

Our Lives are meant to be free

Though it seems we never receive 

Our lives are meant to be free

Though it seems (we never receive)

I resemble the few who believe

In an audience of no one

(In the beginning) I seen the end

An end to detesting brilliance

(Fate) was my clear sky

My clarity gone astray

(Fate) was my clear sky

My clarity gone astray

I resemble the few who believe

In an audience of no one

(In the beginning) I seen the end

An end to such brilliance

Our Lives are meant to be free

Though it seems we never receive 

Our lives are meant to be free

Though it seems (we never receive)

Extrication

Drifting thru the unaware

Igniting a spark of deceit 

(Witnessing the flames spread)

Burning thru all of creation

I have proclaimed a mortal man

In this scenario of immortality

What has these lessons Taught me if only

To allow this gift to be. Overshadowed

(Ghosts of Lives Never Lost)

Is this what we have become (is this)

Is this my humble excuse (is this)

My claim to be

My bane to an existence never sought

(I simply cannot fathom an attention

To ridicule thy relevance)

(Ghosts of Lives Never Lost)

Less Than Us

deliberated to be an immersed derivation

something elapsed and exonerated

somehow we seem to reawaken and endure

these deplorable nightmares 

our veracity is vaguely portrayed

as merely irrelevant

once elapsed and believed exonerated

now has reemerged 

we blame debility on one another

becoming neglectful about our subsistence

trying to conceal our own transpiring fallacies 

our veracity is vaguely portrayed

as merely irrelevant

once elapsed and believed exonerated 

now has reemerged 

"and we have a tremendous capacity

to turn people into less than us

and once you do that you can justify

a hell of a lot of awfulness" 

somehow we lost touch within ourselves 

and forgotten that erratically it is us who are at fault

distinguishable as oblivious

we believed we gave our hope up for freedom

i said we believed we gave our hope up for freedom

to allow our lives to be dictated for worse 

we suppressed our dreams for oh so long

to abscond from the obvious

we spent our lives trying to conceal

how ignorant we truly have become 

we have a tremendous capacity

to turn people into less than us

and once you do that you can justify

a hell of a lot of awfulness
