Blood and Water

Strain and deceit turn blood into the water in which I sink.
You refuse to drown alone, but you’re not gonna drown with me.
Lie to me, tell me that you really feel alive.
Look through my eyes as the poison enslaves your mind.
Kept you on your feet through too many second chances
Paid in full with a stab in the back
Another twist of the god damn blade
A fork in the road and the darkest path was chosen, I can’t say
That I feel remorse
Or that I understand
But I do know one thing
I will not tread water while you drown in self delusion.
You lost control and you chose your path but I won’t do the same when I let go and watch you sink
What can I do but turn my head and try to forget my wasted efforts to keep you from slipping away from us?
Twist the blade again and again
Another wound in the family tree

Born of Fear

Back down; the loudest fools are always the first to bleed
Safe inside your ivory walls, you love a life of fallacy.
Would you fight the war without a witness?
Would your foundation be built the same?
Do you even have a line in the sand,
or is righteousness fair game?
The curtain sets, The spotlight fades
Unmasked, your ego lives to see another day.
Your belief is born of fear. No conviction, only thirst
For the illusion of power
At the price of being cursed
Drawing innocent blood
you’re afraid to spill your own
A king without a spine will always lose the throne.
Branded by your ignorance
You stand before your kind
The same fools that let you feel
Like a god above us all
As you reach for glory,
You stand before the judge
And in this law of reality...
The hammer falls
You’ve tripped on your ego in your race to false perfection
A casualty of war started by unarmed minds
As you reach for glory,
You stand before the judge
And in this law of reality...
The hammer falls
Would you fight the war without a witness?
