The Faded Line

Witness shame's parade, the pain of blame repaid
It's fucking hopeless
Accusations and denial.
Hopeless, demon of another day
Colorless, stoned, solid grey
Emptiness, of promises I made
So faithless, the tenants long betrayed

Walk the faded line, cursed crawl of time
Silence, the only promise ever kept

Familiar touch, a ritual to numb the cut
Salvation in Vic
Anguish is realizing what could have been, but never was
It's emptiness that fills the cup
Devotion in the method of my fall.
Pointless, futility continuing
Endless, flowing corrupted vein

Walk the faded, cursed crawl of time
Silence, the only promise ever kept
Hopeless
