n day number one

We black out the sun

Turn off the light and leave me with none

Lost in the fight

Die for what's right

Bleed through the pain to be murdered on sight

Paving the way

We've drowned in dismay

Beaten by silence and ghosts every day

Scars grown from trust

skin falls to dust

brittle from stress as my teeth turn to rust.

Now why with consequence I have come to see

your lies have drowned in my eyes and memory

Pressed dry like flowers begot of a century

Left to die inside is what’s left of the best of me

I am the seething of populace

chewed up and spit out for avarice

Just being born was the catalyst

Blood lines the floor of the palaces

Now why with consequence I have come to see

your lies have drowned in my eyes and memory

On day number one

We black out the sun

Turn off the light and leave me with none

Lost in the fight

Die for what's right

Bleed through the pain to be murdered on sight

Paving the way

We've drowned in dismay

Beaten by silence and ghosts every day

Scars grown from trust

skin falls to dust

brittle from stress as my teeth turn to rust.

Now why with consequence I have come to see

your lies have drowned in my eyes and memory

Pressed dry like flowers begot of a century

Left to die inside is what’s left of the best of me

I am the seething of populace

chewed up and spit out for avarice

Just being born was the catalyst

Blood lines the floor of the palaces

Watch as the grieving takes over from breathing

The anger and screaming

Again and again
