lyrics

I don't wanna go down (to the bottom)
you can never be found (at the bottom)
such a lonely place (at the bottom)
you can never feel safe (at the bottom)
you can never be sure of yourself (at the bottom)
so why do you insist on fooling yourself (at the bottom)
you know you don't belong (at the bottom)
so why do you try and drag me along (the bottom)
it's your biggest mistake (at the bottom)
you can never awake (at the bottom)
you'll relive your regrets (at the bottom)
you can never forget (at the bottom)
you will only feel pain (at the bottom)
you will lose all your gains (at the bottom)
you'll be fed only lies (at the bottom)
you will probably die (at the bottom)
(at the bottom) die (at the bottom) die
(at the bottom) die (at the bottom) die
(at the bottom) die (at the bottom) die
(at the bottom) die (at the bottom) die

I dreamt you didn't make it and I tried going home but there were only dark windows and empty rooms
I couldn't get in
I'm sorry
I couldn't get in

somnium iam et sentio pacis
somnium iam et sentio pacis
pacis, pacis, dormio, morior

(at the bottom) (at the bottom) (at the bottom) (at the bottom)
(at the bottom) (at the bottom) (at the bottom) (at the bottom)

we are all going to die
morior! morior! morior!

Les Monstres Terribles Toronto, Ontario

Good Evening.

We were born on a haunted island where it always rains but have since run away from it. We have come to rest at the foot of a small mountain in a city that is constantly trying to kill us. These are the choices we have made.

Please watch your step. ... more
