Riddle
Never through regretting
The past can be a painful truth
My mind has walked through endings
A dead heart is the timeless proof
Walking from the weather
Into loss and loneliness
Never once to let her
Become my heart and know my love
Nothing fuels the last hope
To find a way to sacrifice
The nothing that is my rope
And spare my heart the final price
Angels lost in deep thought
Demons buried in their lies
Caught between what I sought
And the riddles that want all to die
Screaming in the distance
Empty words defend front lines
Impartial inexistence
My lack of faith has blurred my mind
Broken and divided
Empathetic knowing eyes
Poisoned and two-sided
I am the truth that loves your lies
