Merciless

The moment slipped right thru your hands
The reckless hours that bled
A speck of light to catch you
On a river running red
Watch your idle brains turn over
Where the sky's the limit too
Fervour in the cold
Turns your beating hearts blue

Inmates running the asylum
Endless tides drag you under
Hopeless blind endeavour
Way beyond the likes of me and you
Churning out ever more
Getting caught up in the wheels
One big cover up
To hide so you will never know what's real

Break down the modern woes
Shed some light upon the world
Lift the lid on the riddles of this life
Before it all comes to shuddering halt
Hell-bent on taking off
To capture every last speck of love
Hurtling thru these fleeting moments
All the while, trying your best to cling on for dear life

Shed some light on every corner
It's in the lap of the gods entombed
The cardinal sins never
To sing that old devilish tune
Emerge unadorned and tethered
To the misfit dressed in red
What Blurred the line forever
Is Shot down in flames then left for dead

If you get caught up in the storm
No mans land's the place to be
Collapse under the weight of
Of never ending promises
Pouring out on the land
With a merciless shiver
Hail these bitter times
That hide so you will never know what's real

Break down the modern woes
Shed some light upon the world
Lift the lid on the riddles of this life
Before it all comes to shuddering halt
Hell-bent on taking off
To capture every last speck of love
Hurtling thru these fleeting moments
All the while, trying your best to cling on for dear life
