1.
All around there are veiled profits Visible to those that inquire The unseen apotheosis of ourselves Believing only what can be formulated within Past the lies is something hard to discern Certain times are remembered so well while others are forgotten The deception of memory Life spans fabricated by our minds Knowing things that weren’t ours to know The truth cannot be known Time is forever a mystery Nothing really, really exists
2.
Too long secluded to the lurid state of scrutiny Motionless though the thoughts keep pacing Counting on fingers that hold not a clue Nor a hint of a distant murmur: "please let me sleep" At nightfall it's all the same Figures weaving flawless deceptions of slumber Clawing at eyelids that are far from clenched A mute room has so much to tell Behold the comfort of a haze It's all for naught in this one
3.
Renounced to the silent harmonies; boundaries to the break Sliced like a thread held out too long A facade of silent pledges A figure built of deceit Famished now, forced to reap cruel thoughts that not our own Structured upon a tempest that has drug us out to sea Choruses (choruses) played out (why don't we listen?) Audible (audible) for decades (every single day) Choruses (choruses) played out (now it's too late) Here I lay comatose and alone now until the end Once there was a reason to search for something more But it died at a notion for truth
4.
Spent your whole life in fiction-filled affairs Now the proper accord graced you Once out of sight, the will to hold invigorates But you can’t breathe life back into something that was never alive Uttering speech that was of the past Aching for a mention of ease When questioned to defend, they all fall silent The overt display tells all
