Gaping Deception In Guiltless Eyes

“When our hands are tied
Life presents us with another disgrace
And unable to react
I watch the grief parading before my eyes”

The look now empty by imposition of this course
Lips who forgot what it was to smile
The gaping deception in guiltless eyes
And lastly the wreck of a naive embrace

Grim is the dye that adorns its harmless soul
It feels the pain of this tormenting world
And for this life cries in vain
Of vainly it all goes on

So harrowing became its heart beat
A loveless cadence of horrifying tunes
Vanquished by the ache of fraternal scorn
On the shore of dereliction she’s aground

“Dragged by the dark mud of existence
Succumbed in the struggle for not having more courage
I’m just another dead weight
Yes…that’s what I am…only a fucking dead weight”

“Memories of a dream that no longer belongs to me
Lost in my vast empire of pettiness”
