Even in the darkest caves, The lowest depths The driest seas Something seems to sparkle. Broken glass glistens in the light It cuts me, so delicately And you watch me bleed Yours eyes light like fire The intensity of your gaze is evident. Some might call it sick But we're all diseased with a common plague. We find glory in watching others pay the price For our mistakes and falters. And still, others may call that cynicism.

Cynicism
Even in the darkest caves, The lowest depths The driest seas Something seems to sparkle. Broken glass glistens in the light It cuts me, so delicately And you watch me bleed Yours eyes light like fire The intensity of your gaze is evident. Some might call it sick But we're all diseased with a common plague. We find glory in watching others pay the price For our mistakes and falters. And still, others may call that cynicism.
