The heart collapses, the mind in chains
The feelings we feel have only to be conveyed
Confused and blind is what we all are
Good at being discreet around others, but when alone, tears are inevitable
Unfocuses eyes stare into the world, looking at it like it's wrong,
like it wasn't meant to be
Reminded of our mistakes, the wrong turns we take each day
Our pride and out stubborness
We fail to learn, and to know of any truth
Blaming former loved ones, losing friends
No time for caring, only to run
Conflicts begin to catch up, pushing and weighing us down like a thousand
bricks
Blind eyes seeing nothing but a lie being lived
Truth behind metal bars, unable to reach them, nor is there any desire to do
so
Revolved personalities, going behind others' backs, yet no guilt being
felt although it exists inside of us
Turn off the light, it makes no difference
More blind than we were before
Regret overtakes is, but we find the desperate need to hide that
Nothing, but greed, the wanting to be left alone
The passion to walk the shadows and ignore all sense of life
Broken tears stream down out cheeks, cold as ice
Hell is taking over, and we are still as blind as before
No need for sorries or pity
No pity upon us, or pity upon me
Solemn eyes crawl to the sky in search of unknown truth, but out hearts fail
to look deeper into the darkened blanket above
We stare at those we've doubted, feeling for them again, but knowing
taht it's impossible to be loved by them again
Still we are blind as we just don't see that minds can't be read
like pages from a book, but can be questioned
No control inside, no thought, but htat of the guilt that has caught up with
us
Blindness, alas, realized
Our hearts, alas, break
Is it too late to turn decision or words that were said around
One option, and only one option and that is for us to look inside outselves
and to believe the words that are thrown upon us for once
Our blindness shall exist until we take it upon ourselves to believe others
