Escape to Withering

from Apille by Thomas Christ

/

lyrics

Apille says to Elivante:

I am sorry to say, it isn't you, it is me.
I must wither and die for me to ever be free.
The god that I've created lives on in my head.
He'll never go away until the day that I'm dead.

He was created when I was still very small.
My momma and poppa were the first to install.
That fatal ideology that led me to this.
Now give me a kiss, before I enter the abyss.

This thought process is fatal.
From when I was in the cradle.
Taught me I was a god made thing.
Now my only escape is withering.


I love you but I need for you to please understand.
I was born into fear with this bible in my hand.
The thought will ever haunt me till my synapses fail.
It's like my brain was apprehended and locked up in jail.

My only escape is in this kamikaze mission.
I'm bound and clamped and attached to this dire superstition.
If I could just erase my mind I'd start over again,
And stay right here with you, but I must speed to my end.

Now I must wither and fade away.
Now I'm decaying, everything going gray.
Now I must wither and fade away.
This is goodbye. I can no longer stay.
