Lyrics

Obscure reflections stare back at me
Through the tainted water
Neglected exposure
I am the product of this distorted culture
Eclipsed by my antic disposition
I'm merely an illusionary shell fed to chimeras
Fragmented constructs of a fluorescent realm
Incept a twilight and destruct the elms
A collective myopic gaze entrances us all
Oh how i pity this despondent existence
The lustrous phantom; Speaks of tongues obscured
The pale lumiére; Speaks of eyes deluded
My innocence was stolen by the birds who couldn't see
Singing sonnets as the earth stood still and screamed
And at the end of it all
I was torn from my soul
Begging that one day
I might be whole
And at the end of it all
I might be whole
I set my heart ablaze and watched it flare nihility
But then the gateway appeared to me
And showed me the path
That would reconstruct my life
That would purge this condition
And understand my disdain
This world is nothing more
Than the quintessence of dust
Show me how to rid myself of the shadows that lurk inside of me
And at the start of it all
I was torn from soul
Begging that one day
In time
I might be whole
Show me how to rid myself of the shadows that lurk inside of me
