The grey days consume me Time trickling like water beads A thousand tears, are shed A thousand needles, stab at my my heart, Till it stifles the once shining star Leaving me as a hollowed carcass My heart, been through many hands Each one tearing it away, piece by piece Where they were the merciless marionettes And I was the foolish puppet, Lapping at their orders Being played at by sinuous strings.

Tainted
The grey days consume me Time trickling like water beads A thousand tears, are shed A thousand needles, stab at my my heart, Till it stifles the once shining star Leaving me as a hollowed carcass My heart, been through many hands Each one tearing it away, piece by piece Where they were the merciless marionettes And I was the foolish puppet, Lapping at their orders Being played at by sinuous strings.
