Derived from the remnants of sacrificed thought fragmented reminders of lessons taught **** the device used to rose tint our sins and shatter mirrors that sustain fake grins. With self painted visions, we are pacified Convinced... Horrors inflicted have been indemnified.
Tied to past convictions we cannot shed commitments that exist solely in our head. Painstaking attempts to make justified the pain that we've caused that cannot be denied. Who are the victims of decisions we've made? If given the chance... Our suffering for theirs, could we bear to trade?
Whispered snickers hint at retribution offer redemption but no solution. Mistakes which drizzled in unspectacular drops collected in pools and drowned cultivated crops. Prisms of pain inflicted by selfish choices Cut deeper... When we ignored the pleas in our victim's voices.
Pointed fingers say all that needs to be said our peers may believe us better off dead. But the harder we try to fix our mistakes the more ground we lose, that we cannot retake. With guns to our heads, and a knife in our back No weapons... Us against the world, and we're under attack.
Weight of responsibility burdens our souls sapping our strength and confusing our goals. Stripped of our artillery, naked and exposed inside we're screaming but appear composed. The enemy looms larger with each of our errors Weakened by defeat... Realization strikes, We are the true terrors
