The Cycle

"The Cycle" is a song off of Rest, Repose's first album, Rest, Repose.

Lyrics
Loss and silence

We crawl into the depths within ourselves

Wallowing now

We cross no paths to compromise this hell

Right now

There’s a mystery just begging to be solved

I will, I will dive into your world

Higher, lighter, brighter than the stars

I see the novas in your eyes

I have everything I dreamt of but you

Trapped in moments

We bleed ourselves dry

Mark our skin and weep

Mercy

We pray for pain to stop

We need release

No more

We crave the strength to rise up from our knees

Press on

We beg to be complete

But I see you standing in the light

And I feel alive

I have everything I dreamt of but you

God dammit

I feel my strength is slipping slowly

Rely on the people that I trust

And lust, and pray to be a part of

I swear I’ve been around this cycle

Trapped in my head, confined to beds

And nothing seems to make it better

What keeps me going

Is it dreams of hope and sorrow

Is it possible to never feel this hollow

Again

When these same four walls and hidden photo

Clearly become my only friend

I have everything I dreamt of but you

I have everything I dreamt of but you
