Aeon Nexus - Mercury Lyrics

I tried to befriend her
But she was mercury
She slipped through my fingers
Silver strands bleed through the blueprint
Stains from the strain

Weave through the fissures
In the neuron labyrinth
The ravages of time
I lit the beacons to guide her way
But she was lost in a past that would never end

Poison is all in my mind
And I'm losing faith in a world that's unkind
I can't tell if it's me or my memories
Haunted by the demons I can't find
Poison is all in my mind
And I'm losing faith in a world that's unkind
I can't tell if it's me or my memories
Haunted by the demons I can't find

The alchemy of fear
Silver in the water
How did I fall this far
In the sunken nadir?
The alchemy of fear
Silver in the water
The past corrupts the path
How did I end up here?

And I can't run away
I could never catch her now
Locked deep within the grey
The fear consumes me now

Send the signal
Engage the rage
See the red
Flooded with a blinding haze

Why won't they leave me?
They try to deceive me
Why won't they leave me alone?
Why won't they leave me?
They try to deceive me
Why won't they leave me alone?

The mercury takes hold

Alchemy of fear
Silver in the water
The past corrupts the path
How did I end up here?

The mercury takes hold
