THE BEAST

#numento #inverserecords #scarlethaze https://numento.bandcamp.com/ "Scarlet Haze is one of the first songs composed for the 2022 album. Being a bit different Numento song in terms of atmosphere and lyrics, it tells a story about suffocating and draining relationships. The lyrics were originally written for another song we made almost 10 years ago that was never published. Thus, the story got another opportunity to be reincarnated with this passionate, highly melodic and a bit melancholic track with a lot of contrasts, as often in Numento music."

Hiding your lethal poison A symbiosis of the feeble And the dominant A venom and the antidote I carry your burden I become your abandoned remains You watched me fall into your traps When your virus infected my mind Took over the control of my freedom I inherited your curse! There was no space for me to grow beside you Your senselessness dimmed the light in my eyes I felt your pain, a strangling strain in my lungs As your needs drained the air around me Ailing in my dreams that Control my mind My delusions collide with the pain No sign of life left in me In front of me You are my murderer But your wounds I cannot bleed You watched me fall into your traps When your virus infected my mind Took over the control of my freedom I inherited your curse! There was no space for me to grow beside you Your senselessness dimmed the light in my eyes I felt your pain, a strangling strain in my lungs As your needs drained the air around me Shattered mirrors That reflected my sorrow This was my bliss to follow Until I bled dry and hollow You were my bliss to follow Until I bled dry and hollow
