lyrics

We put our trust in the flower, bloomed from rubble
But now it’s wilted, and we float adrift
With the beating of time
Give up every change and every rebirth
And like Gregor Samsa -
He’s the one who understood -
The only purification is letting ourselves die slowly
As a catharsis, deafening silence weighing on us
It’s no defeat, no surrender
Silence speaks louder than words
Silence is louder than words
When existence is surrounded by mechanical sounds
And the noise leaves us in an ocean of solitude
Get ourselves consumed by the wind
Turning our body into dust
Maybe we will rise from the ashes
But if we are not reborn like the Phoenix
We’ll unburden ourselves of the weight of life
The concept of catharsis according to Gregor S.
It’s the only way to be reborn under new essence
Light and quiet

The Burden of Purpose
by Caged Existence

supported by 5 fans who also own “Gregor S. (feat. Matteo Montis)”

Hugely fantastic Nostalgia-core! The glory days of middle school and their simplicity crushed into aural format. Reminiscent of As I Lay Dying's early works (more than reminiscent, I'd wager AILD would struggle to produce this anymore) with their head-crashing breakdowns and jaw-smashing brand of metalcore.
