요즘 이탈리아 데스메탈 밴드인 Fleshgod Apocalypse의 곡들을 자주 듣곤합니다.

간만에 밤새도록 롬2를 돌리며 곡들을 듣는데 The Fool이라는 곡이 귀에 콕 박히네요. 어쩌면 요즘 제 삶의 일부분과 닮은 노래라서 그런걸지도 모르겠네요.

[Verse 1]
Die...of laughter in delight before a living dead
Victim into this masquerade, forgot who I am
This story is driving me mad
My life is hanging by a thread that is about to break
Suicidal tendencies burn inside the mind of this miserable man
Is it life? Is it death?
I don't give a shit
Still...
Is it life? Is it death?
When you fool yourself
Fucked

[Chorus]
Bleed behind this painful mask I wear
I'm falling from a misleading grace
The life I dreamed is killing me

[Verse 2]
Stuck on the tightrope
Staring down to the void beneath
In imposed equilibrium
I stand swinging in my indecision
Uncompassionate result of a fearing existence
I don't care if my time has come
All I want is my liberation

[Instrumental Section]

[Verse 3]
Drunk, I make it through the night with spirits hand in hand
My soul must be anesthetized, I can't bear this pain
To my frustration engaged
Just like to get laid with the worst enemy I've inside
But I cannot change myself
No way to squeeze blood from the stone that I am
Is it life? Is it death?
Fuck!
Is it life? Is it death?
When you fool yourself
Why?

[Chorus]
Bleed behind this painful mask I wear
I'm falling from a misleading grace
The life I dreamed is killing me
Bleed behind this painful mask I wear
I'm falling from a misleading grace
The life I dreamed is tearing me down

그래도 역시 먼저 떠나간 친구가 있으니 저라도 살아가야쥬.
