__

Digging myself out of the prison that we made

Tether the indignation to a passive rage 

I know I’m no better so paint on your halo And hide from your shadow and practice everything you’ll say 

Took time to find out gold will rust

No one to trust 

A crisis to deflect the blame. 

More of the same. 

Losing all of your light. 

Listen how the scream chokes to a whisper 

Stand up and testify, fear is just demise born of the never. 

So trapped and paralyzed a distant stare reprieve

The loudest silence cries with no recovery

Silver line the lies and paint on your halo 

And run from tomorrow and regret everything you’ll say. 

Took time to find out gold will rust

No on to trust

A crisis to deflect the blame 

Take all you can 

And I am the reason for all that you’ve lost

A gangrene like cancer eating away at the soul 

Suffering the one that’s left 

Exploiting emotions, they’re spinning out of control
