Desperate Ritual Lyrics

Return from the edge of extinction

No energy, no drive, I'm just feeling depleted

Survival riding on this, a dying shell of a man

They have me right where they want me but I'll give them hell

My body's pushed to the edge

Muscles constricting lungs

Feeling the pressure of death

A sacrifice made tonight

Thoughts racing, I'm terrified

Rumors and lies, they swirl

Just need to shut my mind off

Salvation lies in sight

The pressure is building

I'm feeling the brink of the end while I'm cramping hanging off of the edge of a cliff

Or so it feels, gasping for a breath

I'm desperate for a speck of hope

My body's pushed to the edge

Muscles constricting lungs

Feeling the pressure of death

A sacrifice made tonight

Thoughts racing, I'm terrified

Rumors and lies, they swirl

Just need to shut my mind off

Salvation lies in sight

As my lungs constrain, I'm feeling bursting veins

Body crumbling

Fighting through the pain, slowly gone insane

Pressure sets in

Feet are cramping

Crippling distress

Legs are failing

I can't even stand

Arms are numb

Blood has left me

Head is pounding

My fate is nearly sealed

Sealed

My body's pushed to the edge

Muscles constricting lungs

Feeling the pressure of death

A sacrifice made tonight

Thoughts racing, I'm terrified

Rumors and lies, they swirl

Just need to shut my mind off

Salvation lies in sight

I have failed myself

No one else to blame

Gave it all I had

Now left defenseless
