In the Wake

See through the masquerade, I can’t believe what’s in front of me, Vivid deception becomes flesh and bone, You’re only mirroring your internal lies. Is there no end to this, waking eternity? Carve out my eyes if this is truth I see, then keep me blind. There will always be a price to pay, suffering this reality. There’s a world at your fingertips, a mind of your own but got nothing to say. Remain buried thin the neon glow of your apathy. Watch as another is laid to waste, as you’re failing to see the warning signs, Is there no end to this, waking eternity? Is there no end to this, my tired eyes have seen enough. Put me out of my misery, a fate decided. Carve out my eyes. Caught in the wake of disparity, Caught in the wake of this masquerade. (A lucid illusion) Carve out my eyes if this is truth I see, then keep me blind.
