lyrics

The suffering that I have caused
The grips of tyranny I can’t escape
My hands covered in soot
From this world I set aflame

Atop these ivory towers
Gleaming with stolen pride
Jewels to shine reflection
Staring back in cathartic eyes
The fortitude that I’ve ignored
The ramparts I’ve sat behind
Deafened to the shrieks
That wail from the other side

Sorrow in these plea’s
Regrets of lives past
Choking on redemption
Atonement beyond my grasp

Hilts of malicious swords
Tainted with toxic blades
Penetrate with righteous cause
As ends meet through me
How can I prosper
While the world tears me down

Suffering, a heart of gold
Shattered from abuse’s chokehold
Wounds of my own making
Tearing piece by piece
The theft of potential
Purpose abandoning

I am guilty
