Conflicted

This will not be another case of deception

Running away from the lights in my eyes

That are blinding the night

without reason or rhyme

A sense of sound that is

piercing in silent taunting

Me to the point where I can’t hear my own voice

Escape your mind like an island prison cell

Without visible restraints

but keeps inflicting pain

Chorus:    I see the truth before my eyes

                  I leave conflicts behind me

                  An inner piece of my mind

                  Accept what faith has dealt me

Another splinter in my side by side with you and

Your twisted thoughtfulness

unlike any other vice

Build a box shallow and bury all emotional

Ties that bind me to this collapsing bridge

Escape your mind like an island prison cell

Without visible restraints

but keeps inflicting pain

And with each passing breath

that you take from me

I see inside inside your soul a dark abyss

Chorus:    I see the truth before my eyes

                  I leave conflicts behind me

                  An inner piece of my mind

                  Accept what faith has dealt me

The truth will not set you free

The damage has already been done

The evil of men has never been more apparent
Redemption never stood a chance

Another clear cut case of a frozen state of mind

This will not be another case of deception

There will be no more trust

You cannot rely on this madness

Only now at the end do you understand

Chorus
