Periphery - Mile Zero lyrics

It starts as one festering feeling
The kind that cuts from the
Flesh down to the soul no way
(no way) to make amends for
The time behind the door
Street lights feed lies straight to the
Mind of the wishful wanderer
How could he give up?
No second chances to say goodbye!

Wrapped in this cold nostalgic energy
From cries of the ones who are buried
Ascend beyond

Life is ruthless and shot full of pain
It lifts you up, leaves you out in the rain
And it hurts just to know that
You're not coming back again
I will miss you my friend!
Memories like a slug to the brain
Paint the walls that with a love that
Will stain the darkest of nights!
You left to join with the stars and
I cannot shake this off my chest

In death we grieve until all
Have transcended from this realm
In time we will meet again

Suddenly I can feel the
Connection between dimension ties
Open gut on the floor
Trembling down to the core what is this?

It's been a long ride without you
I'm lost inside my own world
There's not a single day where
I've feigned the acceptance
But it's a somber stroll down this
Road that we call life
The silence still is crawling out
Of my sedated sight how can I be free?

Wrapped in this cold nostalgic
Energy from cries of the ones who are buried
Ascend beyond

Life is ruthless and shot full of pain
It lifts you up, leaves you out in the rain
And it hurts just to know that
You're not coming back again
I will miss you my friend!
Memories like a slug to the brain
Paint the walls that with a love that
Will stain the darkest of nights!

Left to journey alone
But I can find my way back home
