Pillar

I'm stuck in the shadows, a dying star in the vastness of time shining light that never reach any eyes. Turning into an empty space, another figure without a face I'm the glue, lost in the tenure Behind the skyline, the bricks beneath the monuments, the substance to the masterpiece, the strength behind the splendor. I carried their crosses, I wore their crowns of thorns Oh how easy my blood was washed away I'm the pillar, for all to lean on We'll see how they fare when I'm gone Fate is glaring beyond the wall While I aimlessly carve and claw What death will come to find What i said to you My throne is vacant How can this be the end Remember me Tell me I'm part of history I've bled for it, I've died for it If I'm nothing, it's all for nothing If my name is not amongst the greats I've failed, I've failed And I won't fail again
