Noose Dragger Songtext
von Munt

Weary we carry the weight of a promise
Lurking in darkness
In the depths of the mind
Whispering of freedom
Where in life you were deprived
And were denied
Reassurance is found in an inevitable end
You heave and lurch with thoughts of the empty horizon
Slowly shedding every burden
Except this lingering curse
Forced to suffer
A senseless waste of life
Harrowed by knowing what should have been
Eaten away by the shame that′s within
Why bother wasting any more time
Stricken by sickness and plagued by pain
How can a life lived in earnest end this way?
The palpable absence of isolation
An open wound
A gnawing ache


What in nature demands broken wills and splintered psyches?
An instinct woven into us and moulded by our biology?
The sad thing it makes a sickening sense
To abandon something so seemingly senseless
No victorious rejection
Like heroes of old on their swords fallen
Instead it is bitter and sombre
The grim climax of a life starved and strangled
Lurching towards the precipice
A cold hand clutched to your chest
In your heart all you ever wanted
Was to find peace and safety in the world that you reside
You clasp and claw
And still everything will be taken
The noose you drag behind you
Your only possession
A world of woe
A world of no hope
I am afraid
Of what awaits me tomorrow
The world is not for you
The world is against you
The world our only home
THE WORLD IS NOT YOURS
