Novembers Doom - Six Sides lyrics

She once told me the box is where it lives Within those six sides, the enemy hides The power escapes under its cold breath And it's my responsibility to watch it die. These years provide the stepping stone And it grows stronger before my eyes I chose to keep it alive I will choose when it dies No prayer, no hope, no wicked way A violent path of a fantastic mistake Dark corners where seclusion resides A funeral to escape her fearful gaze These years provide the stepping stone And it grows stronger before my eyes I chose to keep it alive I will choose when it dies A sickening sound of clawing, trying to escape Sealed tight, no air, and no light It needs nothing more then hate to exist I inherit this curse Like the scientist before the dawn A poison I create with stunning envy Asphyxiate the war that lives inside Remove the life and silence the cries Don't you dare attempt to understand You couldn't pretend, not then or now I've fathered this prison for too many years Kept alive to one day crush all dreams Within six sides, the enemy hides The power escapes under its cold breath It's my responsibility to watch it die I once told her the box is where it died
