“The fault lies within ourselves” The tearing down of a person A breaking of the Spirit The ruining of self Infliction by other person’s words Growing up among the abandoned buildings Once thriving with production They became empty The soul seen through broken windows Cold and damp Waiting to be torn down Stripped of its resources for pennies. Until there’s nothing left An empty shell Set it a blaze Until it’s nothing but ash. Then cry over the empty space Remember it when it was a productive enterprise Forgetting about the time it was empty,

Rubble and Decay
“The fault lies within ourselves” The tearing down of a person A breaking of the Spirit The ruining of self Infliction by other person’s words Growing up among the abandoned buildings Once thriving with production They became empty The soul seen through broken windows Cold and damp Waiting to be torn down Stripped of its resources for pennies. Until there’s nothing left An empty shell Set it a blaze Until it’s nothing but ash. Then cry over the empty space Remember it when it was a productive enterprise Forgetting about the time it was empty,
