Mutual Destruction

Lost in a sea of anger Just can't seem to find My way back down This perfect life is all we have For an instance I felt it slipping from my hands Tragedy reveals itself as a parody Of the life that I have left For a moment I held them close But like dust through my fingers They slipped away In our ruins, I search for signs Stories written, then erased Memories of bitter taste Fall of fate Kill the hearts now absent of their faith To be reunited once their souls are claimed Feel the ground now open up to their hate Falling through a void of silence Ghosts of our past whisper my name Yea I built their world, but the walls collapsed Now I drift In dark shadows of their shame Echoes of their laughter still they haunt me In this hollow space I claim For fourteen years I gave my life All the while To provide a sense of selfless pride The door swings shut No sound, no fight Just the weight of your absence Left in the night Fall of fate Kill the hearts now absent of their faith To be reunited once their souls are claimed Feel the ground now open up to their hate False hope claims The Innocent lives You left out in the wake End the mutual destruction Carry your name NO I gave my life My selfless pride Now I drift In the dark Now I drift In the dark Now I drift In the dark
