Cornered - Dark Tranquillity

There never was a night like this

How could there ever be

Through sweat and velvet misery

The fever race in me

Cornered in a symmetrical design

Sphere-like chrome on a sea enraged

Hatred

What the mirror sees

Is the clutching at straws

Taking us under

The storm of the ocean

This velvety crush

Ringcorners- firm in the outrage

Synaptic patterns

Waves contort

Break into these cellular walls

Why…

Globes of disease, infest my dreams

Burning the ends of my veins

Pattern and form, the squares cling fast

Dance the tide now

Could never bare another night

Although I know it’ll come

The freezing ends of what is me

The icy rages free

Cornered in a symmetrical design

Sphere-like chrome on a sea enraged

Hatred

Take hold of the boundaries —

The Perimeter Sea

Burn!

Enflame the oppressors

But if four was one

In a corner alone

Recovering — licking the wounds

Delirium coming

The weakness kicks in

Resigning, cornered within
