Absent Truth

Staring at the wall,
Hearing the clock behind,
Waiting… we wait so patiently,

Fear is present in our eyes,
As we wait for what's in store,
Oh how pathetic we are,

The rage and anger kept inside,
A war of voices now inside our minds,
To feel the burning fire was our worst desire,
Still as stone with cold cold hearts,
Faceless figures on display,
To reflect upon those mindless days,
A mass of one outspoken lie,
Deceives our hopes to go too high,

Into water we drown our thoughts,
Suspecting yesterday wasn't real,
But it's much too late to worry now,

We keep our arms wrapped around ourselves,
And smile at each other's sins,
Why can't we learn the lesson?!

The rage and anger kept inside,
A war of voices now inside our minds,
To feel the burning fire was our worst desire,
Still as stone with cold cold hearts,
Faceless figures on display,
To reflect upon those mindless days,
A mass of one outspoken lie,
Deceives our hopes to go too high,

We all felt like this before,
When running into another bolted door,
Where have we gone to? We still don't know,
And we don't trust the life beyond,
The diamonds aren't as many, we gather stone,
We forget ourselves in greed and beg for more,
Then end up with nothing losing it all,
To learn the moral that we still ignore,

The rage and anger kept inside,
A war of voices inside our minds,
Feeling the burning fire was our worst desire,
Still as stone with cold cold hearts,
Faceless figures on display,
Now reflect upon those mindless days,
The mass of this outspoken lie,
Deceived our hopes to go too high.
