These Walls

All Bearing Within The Lines
Every Word Breeds Belief
No Such Hope In Humanity
Only That Which To Conceive
The Invaluable Truths
Draw Out False Picture
Your Choice To Fall
Nowhere In Scripture

A Cold Sullen Heart
Holds The Lingering Insult
Sitting Alone In Anguish
Destroying What's Inside
No One Can See Emotion
Disguised By Your Expression
An Example Of The Trust
Leaves An Unlikely Impression

Within All That Resolve
There Resides The Hatred
All Of The Fallen Thoughts
Stored Beside Nothing Sacred
Consumed By Numbed Feeling
Devoured By Hopeless Intent
No One Can See Your Soul
Through These Walls You Invent
