Shadows

Another crack and the foundation shakes
Just one more promise just another mistake
We've given everything and yet we don't learn
We're marching headfirst to the flames that we burn
Running blindly from a fate we can't change
Like blunt force trauma with our minds rearranged
Deny defy do all we can to subside
Clawing upwards as they shut out the light

Broken on my knees I can't
See my way forward can't find my way back
Helpless or just ignorant
Can't see the difference when it fades to black
The emptiness I feel inside
I'm hollowed and I'm deficient a shell devoid of life
A turning point; a fuse - ignite
While remnants feed the apparition here to snuff the light

Spiral downward
Sanctify
Devastation
Blackened skies

Ignore the warnings and embrace the deluge
The twisted cadence of this lifelong abuse
Gluttons for punishment and starved for the nerve
To stand against all that we didn't deserve
Running blindly from a fate we can't change
Like blunt force trauma with our minds rearranged
Deny defy do all we can to subside
Clawing upwards as they shut out the light

Broken on my knees I can't
See my way forward can't find my way back
Helpless or just ignorant
Can't see the difference when it fades to black
The emptiness I feel inside
I'm hollowed and I'm deficient a shell devoid of life
A turning point; a fuse - ignite
While remnants feed the apparition here to snuff the light

Spiral downward
Sanctify
Devastation
Blackened skies

Watch as we fall into the darkest of nights
I'm waiting for shadows to black out the light
Watch as we fall from ignorance into bliss
I'm waiting for shadows in this abyss

Watch as we fall into the darkest of nights
I'm waiting for shadows to black out the light
Watch as we fall from ignorance into bliss
I'm waiting for shadows in this abyss
