The Endurance At Night

Utmost deception
A faulty copy
Buried in the silence
Of the sea
No roots to clutch nor branches grow Out of this wasteland Unreal country cast with blur fog My mental island is beset by sterile thunder Bleak rattle from afar –
Force me down
The mind is fragile –
The flesh is broken
Yet still we cope with mind and flesh So fucking weak
The will is dwindled
The words unspoken
That to survive you only need To breath and eat
Cold came here to breed
In amongst us
Alone and frail – now and forever
Reay aurora of the evening
The dark he comforts
Blotting out the greater terrors leaving the lesser These I’ll handle, these I’ll punish They deign to take me –
I weathered worse
By endurance we conquer!
By endurance we conquer!
By endurance we conquer!
The mind is fragile –
The flesh is broken
Yet still we cope with mind and flesh So fucking weak
The will is dwindled
The words unspoken
That to survive you only need To breath and eat...
Despite all senses,
Besieged by ice
I shall endure –
I was transformed
As were we all
Yet I endure for I have heard survivals call
By endurance we conquer!
By endurance we conquer!
By endurance we conquer!
Haunted by memories
Buried in the maelstrom
Old conflict between the crewmen
Solved on a knife’s edge
Just remember I implored them
Why we all came here
No burden for you to carry
You are your master
The ice unfeeling But forgiving of your life before I came here for isolation
The daily struggle Long hours of relentless darkness Safe return doubtful Reassurance of the unknown
Restoring power The endurance is a journey
It is the purpose of it all
