Their Shadow Cast
Following in guilt
The frailty of the ward
Shield it from deception as it fades from me
Regret will form my armour for the dearth to come
These years worn down
Pursuit of self
A search to find the centre
At expense of
The other and there
After all
These years
A lone figure
Standing
A duty of protection
To a shared burden
We the carriers of time
Brought together
A sacrifice
For the ordeal of elegance
Reckoning
Reckoning
Reckoning
Reckoning
Leave this flesh
Stricken by longing
Cleave the whole
As the spirit withers
Roles exchanged
Time will know this loss
Worthlessness
A legacy of grief
Tethered
To a mask of strength
Resentment
This foul memory
Trapped in word and thought
Never to reach you
Caught in the expulsion
Of this bitter wash
Deception of the self
For expense of the other
Hold me up
As I bring you down
Failure is my constant
As time withers all
And now I see the age
Your words become my own
Regret my ward
I shall protect
I shall
Preserve
These years I've known
Will haunt me
This shame
Will live
The frailty of the ward
Shield it from deception as it fades from me
Regret will form my armour for the dearth to come
These years worn down
Pursuit of self
A search to find the centre
At expense of
The other and there
After all
These years
A lone figure
Standing
A duty of protection
To a shared burden
We the carriers of time
Brought together
A sacrifice
For the ordeal of elegance
Reckoning
Reckoning
Reckoning
Reckoning
Leave this flesh
Stricken by longing
Cleave the whole
As the spirit withers
Roles exchanged
Time will know this loss
Worthlessness
A legacy of grief
Tethered
To a mask of strength
Resentment
This foul memory
Trapped in word and thought
Never to reach you
Caught in the expulsion
Of this bitter wash
Deception of the self
For expense of the other
Hold me up
As I bring you down
Failure is my constant
As time withers all
And now I see the age
Your words become my own
Regret my ward
I shall protect
I shall
Preserve
These years I've known
Will haunt me
This shame
Will live
