the mind conceives thought
for imagination to be born,
yet fantasy is forsaken
and reality fosters the heart

truth be told
mortality is a mess,
for what awaits the soil
may rest in its ruins

i reached for you,
held you in my arms
you breathed in my scent
and it brought you calm

your eyes met mine
they gleamed with pride
you soaked me in
your soul tied to mine

i was a fool
the blame is mine
you were right in front of me
all this time

you had my back
i took the fall
not thinking twice
if we'll make it out alive

for a split second
your eyes bore into mine
for there's an evil inside
who once was a believer

your aura lifted mine
under that vast sky
for you're dead inside
who once survived

you whispered secrets
you were at fault
for you to fail
who once was a vault

there's a knife in my back
with my blood on your hands
for you to disown
who once was your own

you were a part of the lies
i grew up in

you were a part of the curse
i grew up to

you were a part of the destiny
i grew out of
