You wage a war on good intentions
Weighed down by all of your obsessions
Awake from deep slumber
Daylight creeps in
Your eyes
They tell a different story
Mercy
Is what they all are waiting for
Give them nothing
You wait for more, it never comes
Wayed by all your past
Transgressions they all leave embers
Becoming the light of your eyes smothered
Your eyes
They tell a different story
Mercy
Is what they all are waiting for
Give them nothing
You wail and gnash your teeth
But you get nowhere
To find an end, is solace
You think you're clever but there is no one who is fighting for you
You think it's damaged but you gnaw away at all that you've built
