Smile Then Bleed - Benighted

There’s this vision of red colour on the stainless snow

Painful senses, kindly coldness

The shy warmness fleeing little by little

Let the place to the emptiness of unknown feelings

Smile then bleed

You smile?

No affection on my face

Each heartbeat I can feel is like a slow step to chaos

Irremediably attracted to the other side

A long way to the breakpoint

I saw the gleam and followed it, this trail tinged with blood

As the macabre furrow of my life

I dream about beautiful work I let behind

Transported by the desire to lose all that remains me

My eyes are closed

And I hear this voice repeating those words «smile then bleed»

White and red together are splendid

A long way to the breakpoint

I saw the gleam and followed it, this trail tinged with blood

As the macabre furrow of my life

The landscape is peaceful and hostility has disappeared

A piece of resplendent cruelty, progeny of the sufferings inside

I let you as memory this glorious picture

Where the colours of life and death are mixed in a last breath

Then I put the light off

A long way to the breakpoint

I saw the gleam and followed it, this trail tinged with blood

As the macabre furrow of my life

Asleep with a smile on my face
