A sense of betrayal finds you insane
Moments of silence will bind with the pain
Confusion begets the loss of your dreams
Tears flow from the eyes in upwelling streams
Spinning the mind as the world turns colder
As a long, blank stare comes to wash over
The distant sound of goodbye is blurred
Where nothing is seen and nothing is heard
Over it plays as each word is recalled
The days become longer, darker, and raw
The heart becomes a vessel that's shattered
As bits and pieces cry stripped and tattered
Loneliness renders a season lived through
In a spiraling cloud of residue
That claims the light as you wander alone
The roots of despair grow into the bone
Feeding the dark bane of your tomorrow
And will cling to the flesh of your sorrow
Nothing is real but the pain in your core
Whatever love was, it will be no more
