Obelisk, Pt. 1: Fallen Shell

Same story, different day (this self-prescribed)
Medication is worse than the disease (can't you understand?)
This lion heart might be broken but (still beating)
It's nothing more than a trip I take
Traveling in & out (of consciousness)
Maybe comprehending
This predicament's as easy
As walking on water
Besides
The wrinkles in my hands
Divide age from experience
Every tear shed is a lantern along (your path)
Much like fireflies in the dark of night (illuminating)
I'm in this infinite train ride (to understand you)
Hide the melancholy behind your beautiful smile
Separate thought from reason
Understanding all the differences there are between
Loyalty & servitude (so)
Dry your eyes
My dear lullaby be the calm amongst these oceans of apathy & fear
It is hard to believe, but it's been twelve years
There is nothing left of the man you used to know
But the fallen shell should remind me of what I used to be now
That shell
Broken
Is, what I used to be (deep) down
