Another night here

Alone in the dark

Feel myself and my own vision start to drift apart

It doesn’t matter to me

Won’t let this go to waste

I’m failing

I’m breaking

Please god let me create

I won’t eat I can’t sleep when you’re so near

Start to shake cuz I’m losing myself I

Wipe my eyes as my greatest work is here

Clear a space leave my old work behind

Only shame for the peace I held so dear

Gather dust in the box you’ll live inside

Locked away

Totems of your shame

Once your finest work

We were called

Symbols of your cause

But we know we’re just

Toys in the attic to you now

As the dust now settles on my face

Losing hope to ever again see another dawn

I see flaws our maker hates in us and

I think I finally understand my creation

You don’t hate a single work you do

You hate the image of yourself that’s staring back at you

You’re so weak you’d throw me away

If I embody a part of you that you hate

Locked away

Totems of your shame

Once your finest work

We were called

Symbols of your cause

But we know we’re just

Toys in the attic to you now

Where do you think

All your pain and sufferings gone

Don’t you feel it when you look at us

We were born with the anguish that you couldn’t bare

And you dare to call us meaningless?

We have been here ever since you gave us life

And we’ll be here even when there’s no one left

Locked away

Totems of your shame

Once your finest work

We were called

Symbols of your cause

But we know we’re just

Toys in the attic to you now
