Grandeur and Virtue, Pt. II: Regret

Ripping, pulling, tearing at the flesh of your former self
Til' there's nothing left of you to recognize
Exonerate the face you wore while you came of age
To understand the falsehood of the masquerade

Break away from the masquerade

Child, you've come so far
You've took this task alone
And you have put a face to fear
This is far from over
Now you have to choose
Do you take the life
Take the life of acceptance
Or forever live with a life of regret
This is far from over
Now you have to choose

She will always come to me
May the dance persuade her
Feasting on her fragile will
You will not take her
Now leave her be
The influence is broken
She can see you're nothing but demons
Cowering behind your fraudulent identities

Please, know your time
Lay down your masque

Forever The sirens sing songs of deceit
You know better

Child, you've come so far
You've took this task alone
And you have put a face to fear
This is far from over
Now you have to choose
Do you take the life
Take the life of acceptance
Or forever live with a life of regret
This is far from over
Now you have to choose

Don't you fucking leave

You try to choke down
The ashes of the life you once knew
You're broken
The girl you knew is gone
You try to choke down
The ashes of the life you once knew
You're broken
The girl you knew is gone
