Lyrics Despised Icon

Despised Icon

In the Arms of Perdition

Plunged in bitterness

Seduced by an ocean of discontent

Carrying an everlasting smile with insouciance

Cultivating this disconnection with every single interaction.

You won't lure me any further

I've been drinking too much shadow

And now maybe I shall blossom

This misconception of human loneliness must be disregarded.

I will stare at life like I never did before

This game is useless and everything so deceptive

My ambitions may look low but so is the price. I cannot win

What's the meaning of this precious souvenir?

Suppress these feelings.

Forget the man you were (2x)

Even if we both knew that you'd rather be unloved and...

Forget the man you were (2x)

...nameless than be fictively surrounded.

Carrying an everlasting smile with insouciance

[SOLO]

I honestly know that demons will not hear me scream

and angels won't see me cry

Isolation is in the fact that the only thing I require

No false promises await in my nightmares

Nothing, except my own predestined downfall

Look at this smile and think I'm cheerful like you always were...
