Sanctuary

I serve as an example Of the downfall of man To all the cheats The liars and thieves This is your sanctuary My lack of compassion Is proof of the creature That I have become This case of apathy Will prove to be The facade that I bring There is no love lost And an explanation will only show How much my heart will cost So break these chains That serve as the pain I have caused you your whole life There is no hope And no time to cope This ecstasy is short lived In a time that my mistakes are hid It’s a weight we carry And you can see right through me And the lies that I tend to be Just listen closely This is sanctuary
