The Empty Stare
My mind wandered off in the distance
Where I am far from all that cages me
All I could think of was death
Her name disguised in silence
Angelwings and ravenclaws
The shredding of my soul
Steeped in a lavender smile
In thy eyes, the womb of thy despair
Embrace my life within thy empty stare
The overcast sky consoling me
The fortitude within my grasp
I think to myself I'm the sad clown
Smiling reluctantly but crying behind the iron curtain
These tears don't fall
Fall so easily
In thy eyes, the womb of thy despair
Embrace my life within thy empty stare
Damn the illusion which fell upon me
The bitter wine of reality poured all over my face
And I despise what I've become
Just a terrified man, secluded and trapped in time
In thy eyes, the womb of thy despair
Embrace my life within thy empty stare
Together let us roam through endless dreams of night
The moon as our limit and our souls as guiding light
But how can I refuse my empathy to be resolute?
'Cause it feels like I'm dying
I have nothing to gain
Where there is nothing to lose
Where I am far from all that cages me
All I could think of was death
Her name disguised in silence
Angelwings and ravenclaws
The shredding of my soul
Steeped in a lavender smile
In thy eyes, the womb of thy despair
Embrace my life within thy empty stare
The overcast sky consoling me
The fortitude within my grasp
I think to myself I'm the sad clown
Smiling reluctantly but crying behind the iron curtain
These tears don't fall
Fall so easily
In thy eyes, the womb of thy despair
Embrace my life within thy empty stare
Damn the illusion which fell upon me
The bitter wine of reality poured all over my face
And I despise what I've become
Just a terrified man, secluded and trapped in time
In thy eyes, the womb of thy despair
Embrace my life within thy empty stare
Together let us roam through endless dreams of night
The moon as our limit and our souls as guiding light
But how can I refuse my empathy to be resolute?
'Cause it feels like I'm dying
I have nothing to gain
Where there is nothing to lose
