Fleshgod Apocalypse - Matricide 8.21 Lyrics

(Mother) run, boy, run until your lungs give out
They are bleeding
Walk the earth with no regret
Follow your heart one step beyond the horizon
Trust me
Don't let your fears hold you back
'Cause life is in your hands
Where are we going mother?
Where do we come from?
What is the purpose of life?
I think I've gone too far
And now I feel so lost
But at the same time so alive
I crossed the very thin line
Between right and wrong
Ending up where pleasure is turned to pain and good men into monsters
My ego led me astray
Till I've become a ghost
And all that's left is just your voice that echoes
In my empty head, loud
(Mother) run, boy, run until your lungs give out
I never meant to hurt you
(Mother) walk the earth with no regret
I just felt this fire inside
(Mother) follow your heart one step beyond the horizon
August 21st
(Mother) don't let your fears hold you back
The day you watch me die
Sorry for making you cry
Sorry for making you grieve for me
Oh mother forgive me, forgive me
How could I do this to myself
How could I do this to you
And still deserve your love
I wish I could release you from all this sorrow
I wish I wasn't me
I wish I was never born
Yet there's this song in my head
A song about remorse
That I won't hold inside my pen 'cause it might be the last
I need you to know I'm sorry
And that I haven't forgotten
The things you told me when I was a kid, they're still here
Forever stuck in mind just like daggers through my heart
(Mother) run, boy, run until your lungs give out
Walk the earth with no regret
Follow your heart one step beyond the horizon
Don't let your fears hold you back
'Cause life is in your hands
'Cause life is in your hands
Sorry for making you cry
Sorry for making you grieve for me
Oh mother forgive me, forgive me
Before our fate unite
We die together and are born again
This day, august 21st, august 21st
