Say that life won't let you live
A religion on its own
The bad dreams keep you from sleep
And that’s all you'll ever know
Save the pain to make you feel
Loneliness keeps you alone
Fated, let the darkness swell
Hide away and mock the sun
So many words I lost in the
One sided conversation
Just waiting for a response from
Those choosing not to listen
Say it's safer in denial
Surrendered all autonomy
Gaslight on in your house of mirrors
Quarter for sabotaging beliefs
Haunted by questions never asked
The old fortress of self pity
Where you play the victim well
Wrapped in your numbness afraid to heal
So many words I lost in the
One sided conversation
Just waiting for a response from
Those choosing not to listen
Not inspired to defend the actions of ignorance patterning
Blame the maps you won't discern, the roads you won't navigate
Marry to your disbelief, past fighting this apathy
I can't break the anguish, for you don't think you don't deserve to see
Would you dive deeper in it?
Would you tie your foot to an anchor, say you're cursed to drown in puddles?
Fall into entropy, suffering helplessly harvesting empathy
Blaming the victim of suicidal tendency
Fall into entropy, suffering helplessly preying on empathy
Blaming the victim of suicidal tendency
(Stop dead in your tracks, blame the map)
Fall into entropy, suffering helplessly, gnawing on empathy
Blaming the victim of suicidal tendency
Fall into entropy, suffering helplessly lapping up empathy
Blaming the victim of suicidal tendency
Oh, so many words were buried in translation
And I'm waiting for nothing
You won't listen
So many words I lost in the
One sided conversation
Just waiting for a response from
Those choosing not to listen
