about

Stage 6 – The Oubliette

● Starkly contrasted with the Hell in Henry’s mind, is his motionless husk of a body cemented to a hospital bed. No longer able to communicate in any way, Henry realizes he is in a prison within a prison within a prison. First, this place – the hospital. Then, his body – now unable to serve him at all. Now, his mind – where he is trapped with no memories to comfort him and no way to alleviate his confusion or his suffering. The doom metal chorus contrasts starkly with the quiet and sullen guitar that etches the thoughts of Henry as he weakly insists he is still awake within this corpse and he desperately wishes to be set free. His voice shivers and cracks as he begs silently, “please.”

lyrics

STAGE 6: THE OUBLIETTE

Can’t speak
Can’t eat
Cemented to this bed
Can’t breathe
Can’t think
An empty oubliette now

Pieces of who I was…
Forming a river under…
Listless and unaware…
Not dead. Not asleep.

I am awake.

Never knowing.
Never showing you.

White coats do not see me…
Machines talk to them…
Each day a new stranger…
Think I’m gone but…

I am awake.

I know…
My mind won’t heal.
My body died
And left me behind.
Blank space
Where memories once were.
Please god
Just let me die.
