Blackening - Burn

I see a human shell, malfunctioning in its state
What then lay within now seems to be gone

Did you kill it or did it die itself for the sake of making it end?
The loss of what made you human cannot be denied
All the principles that formed and shaped your character, eradicated to the last
I repressed a memory stuck in my head but now it's coming back again

The walls were closing in
When you screamed at me
That you hate your life, you hate this place
You don't want to live no more

A memory so unreal
A question that martyrs my brain
Did your soul die that day
Or does it still live on?

I hear your voice when I close my eyes

Apathetically you're staring out the window, you let your mind go
Unintentionally they've put you into distress, melancholy and despair
Incapable of taking it anymore your soul left or died
What's left? The only thing that I see is a vessel with no operator

Relentlessly the walls are closing in again, I'm about to be crushed
Anxiously I try to cover up my eyes but I still hear you scream

Burn the mortal shell which sheltered her soul from all the pain
She had to endure for such a long time
But as it cracked her soul poured gradually out of the cleft
I could not make it, I couldn't save it
