carefully deceived, a colorless lament. blame? the empty compliments and the skill to circumvent. living in the stained glass cell masked the slow decay. i was focused on facade, and not the walls you'd torn away. when'd you decide to leave? when'd you decide to flee? bruise had me believing every word you said. spilling like a rushing waterfall to your murky river's bed. when a changing current's flow left nothing to extract, but you still begged for flood, how'd you expect me to react? and when you lied to me, you said it was for my own good. then, you'd lie to me. now you lie alone.

searching for the cracks
softer? i've been stalled. fangs will fill of venom in unhinged jaw separating tired from weak blistering with apathy thicker? i've been thawed filtered, frigid-free, and envy the frost fiending for a deeper marine brushing off the atrophy

shrill electric blues drown out all dull synthetic hues and that's all that's in the view up and below the open chute then you pulled me in to your dark liquid hell and i can't breathe so well underwater but the deeper we went on our slow sea descent the more content i became with the slaughter it's the sirens in the shade the ships that sank decide to stay so spent from sunken trench. so spent when drenched and decks decayed and i know i'm the same way cuz as i'm wading in the waves still can't differentiate between the flurry and the fade but, still, eclectic ruse to trick a once-electric you don't get fooled by the fuel my fuse is unconnected too
