Dead Heart In A Dead World Lyrics
To see the last survivor fall
To see their bastard sons against the wall
To see the emptiness as we decay
I see the world is dead, I am betrayed
Dead heart in a dead world
Dead heart in a dead world
This rotten hole that I call home bled dry again
This lesion marked upon my soul
Left an empty hanging man
Across the fields, into the sea
To find the light from within
Out of this lake I've tried to crawl
I think I'm there and then again I fall
Again I fall
Burn your gods and kill the king
Subjugate your suffering
Dead heart in a dead world
We must remember wounds so deep
Take time to heal
And sometimes though we struggle still
Life seems surreal
Emotions turned to cold dead wood
Can still have life once more
The door that slammed upon your heart
Torn away, torn away
Burn your gods and kill the king
Subjugate your suffering
Dead heart in a dead world
Burn your gods and kill the king
Subjugate your suffering
Dead heart in a dead world
Dead heart in a dead world
To see their bastard sons against the wall
To see the emptiness as we decay
I see the world is dead, I am betrayed
Dead heart in a dead world
This lesion marked upon my soul
Left an empty hanging man
To find the light from within
Out of this lake I've tried to crawl
I think I'm there and then again I fall
Again I fall
Subjugate your suffering
Dead heart in a dead world
Take time to heal
And sometimes though we struggle still
Life seems surreal
Can still have life once more
The door that slammed upon your heart
Torn away, torn away
Subjugate your suffering
Dead heart in a dead world
Subjugate your suffering
Dead heart in a dead world
Dead heart in a dead world

I love these lyrics. They sound even better when ur just pissed off and too upset to fight back. It's about despair, loneliness and insignificance. He feels like a man whose lost all feeling and emotion in a world that has lost its feeling. "Out of this lake I've tried to crawl/I think I'm there and then again I fall" He tries to escape it, but every time he attempts he just gets lost deeper and deeper in the "dead world".

PS - Can somebody PLEASE get the lyrics for "The Sorrowed Man"?
The intro is fucking cool.
^^^ YES. The intro is fucking awesome.
to me this song is about attaining fulfillment, maybe even attaining invincibility. the first verse is about despair and not even fighting back or trying, the second verse is about the phase where you've begun to try but still don't have the answers, but you keep learning and trying, ...and the third verse is about fulfillment itself
Jim Sheppard says in an interview: "Warrel attributes to just kind of summing up the emotions he went through with writing a record as personal as Dreaming Neon Black. That's just that no matter how desperate things seem there's a little light at the end of the tunnel. If you look hard enough there is a positive message in that song."
