Failure Lyrics

Album: Demo VII

I own nothing, and possess even less

The world owes me nothing

The fog of our own thoughts is a day away

From the clarity of insight down the spirals of shame

I have abandoned the very island which I grew

I toiled away, weeding the fields

And protecting those whom I loved

And now their fields are overgrown

Choked by indifference and apathy

For what matters the revenge that thrives

When abandoned and obscured from our view

And now I'm obscured from their hearts

And why would I expect a second chance

I come visit the fields from time to time

Can just barely make out the paths they had played

And I would be there, for you were my sunlight

I never knew that the safety I provided

Protects well enough to keep me locked out

Now it's gone, and you're gone and you never moved

And there is no resolution too

Clarity will never bring into focus

For now it all rots away

like the fields where you now lay
