Vanitas

Awaken to this world full of sorrow and pain All those bound by deceit can start to finally speak The look says "you will be just like us one day" Paying for all the debts I never thought would be made A ghost of thought in the sentiments of fate A thousand hearts, a thousand paths to loss The struggle for your remembrance A prosperous road that leads nowhere but to death We are just a different face Holding the exact same fucking page Oh lord forgive our sins and this holocaust within Pull heaven to the ground with this deceit all around More bones we laid to rest, with the dreams that you possessed Disassembled again, and remake the skeleton Crashing words on my ears show they learned what I fear We're both one and the same, this vow I broke in plain Old lessons now lost their grace Set ablaze by stagnant faith Your guidance in my ear You will soon disappear Withered all away (By your hate) Known by your expiration date The last selection (The culling) Left you forgotten and rotting Look upon the stars every night They all fall beneath those bright eyes More phantoms sustained every day By those with nothing more to take The portraits of perdition, will show The truth of what you have always known The shrine will reveal all of the truths Your porcelain god lost in his youth Continue to be a victim of time Until the moment when nothing will begin Remember this world full of sorrow and pain All those bound by deceit, could never really speak Old lessons now lost their grace Set ablaze by stagnant faith Once again Oh lord forgive our sins And this holocaust within ourselves Lost in the loss of someone's life Was it you or another's strife? Every diamond found in the rough Always becomes ground into dust Bleach out all that made you unique Cursing your gifts and leaves all bleak
