A Familiar Face (Of Someone I Never Knew)

Skin to skin
Disposal of morality
By the vile
Deceiving innocence
Slithering hands
Misplaced or misunderstood
The end of eternal youth

Dragged through burning coal
My pitiful life you sort to overhaul
Broken wings as I look to you
A familiar face of someone I never knew

Take, take, take
Take it all

Adding to the tally
Another countless sin
Eternal suffering
As it wraps itself within
As I let the
Ink sink in
This dark passenger is taking over

But What Am I?
I'm a fraction of what I was
No escape
I hear a bellow
I hear a scream
That bellow is my corruption
On the weak you feed
Tearing through my skin
Abolishing my soul

Depths within
It never left me
Tarnished black
It never left me
You never left

Burned on the scolding coals where you left me
Take what you want
Take my soul and now my body
Forever ache this faint heart
That's beating through me
I can't contain
I can't explain
Every scar you left on me

Every scar you left

Adding to the tally
Another countless sin
Eternal suffering
Wraps itself within
