Blades of Glass

Fragmented truths weave into whole lies with mounting doubt beauty dies Each breath I take I gasp for more crawling through broken windows Behind closed doors Greed bleeds the soul of truth and love Innocents devoured by hands of blood Selfishness pleads with lust it feeds the flood is at the rooftop The world prays on her knees Forsaken and shaken hate rules The fires of hell now feel cool To each other, we fraudulently trash our souls melting from tears Like walking barefoot on shiver blades of glass
