The line gets blurry, wrong is right
Hollowness and emotion spill blood into the fire we call life
The heartbeat of the world fades away
Flames scorch the known and darkness swallows the sky, innocence has left
Punishment and forgiveness shake the scale
Colors dull, the bottle tips, numbness vibrates to oblivion
Expectations distort the truth
Emotion is imprisoned by a cloud of nothingness, chains clang
God has tripped and fallen from grace
The switch is flipped but the bulb grows cold, hope leaps out the eighth story ledge
Yet the splatter goes unnoticed
Eruptions fill the eternal night sky like flares for the damaged
A single tree is struck ablaze
The frigid wind extinguishes the light, a breath to the candle
Pretenders spread disillusion
Dark eyes open but nothing changes, there is no escape from fate
