Endless Nothing

Endless parades of a sickened laughter
Twitching your eye at an ever-after
The voice in your mind rebels at its entrapment
As you hide it away in your dark-riddled-contraptions

You cannot return your stolen goods
When what they replace is the only thing you love
Dead and despised by everyone that sees
So to keep up the lies you say they are the ones with disease

Running around with a burning tongue
It was set on fire and that’s where it begun
You were never told about the miracle rain
And now everything that you hear is licked by your flame

Empty dreams for an empty heart
You’ll see your despair but not know where to start
Over and over until you finally die
Metaphoric or not, I doubt you’ll see the sky

Endless nothing consuming your world
The ignorant are the only ones that you’ve heard
You do onto those what has been done to you
And you’re too busy in hate to ever look at the truth
