Captivated by your shine Spent my life to walk your line Climbed a ladder to the sun All belief came undone Sift through ruins, grand and bleak Find the venom that I seek Let it go, the fight is past Every structure built won't last Decided it was time to fade Swallow what the dark has made A flash of color, sharp and deep To quiet all I couldn't keep Damaged, scarred, a nameless ache Too far gone for my own sake Infected to the very seed Too far gone for what I need Damaged, scarred, a nameless ache Too far gone for my own sake Infected to the very seed Too far gone for what I need In a corner, set apart Lies the chamber of my heart I would whisper, plead my case Solo in this empty space Fooled myself to think it real Promises you swore to seal, now repealed Vowed that you would hold the line Then my whole world lost its shine, wasn't fine Couldn't see the coming end Plans you made to ascend, now you pretend Swore that we would see the dawn It all fell apart, and you were gone Damaged, scarred, a nameless ache Too far gone for my own sake Infected to the very seed Too far gone for what I need
