My heart to the sunken of the sea Iron forged by fear of our enemy The gates remain closed Selective choices of knowledge The neophyte thrives By own choice To keep the eye blind The age of enlightenment For which they fought and died Now perish in drought To deny your shame Before there was someone to blame Those hidden in shadows fighting change Now there is only conformity and denial of pain It's easier to hide from the sorrow and enjoy the miniscule futile fleet from reality Tomorrow it will have grown But not by much Not enough to affect the ones you love and trust So what does it matter if we deal with it or not Not bound by morals or a guilty conscience When awareness has been forcefully stopped Deprivation is the key I hope you sleep tight And dream sweet dreams
Death in the gutter Children soldiers mutter Another life taken Blood drops painting Souls of the lost Suicide watch The cutters edge As needles breathe Life to death
