The Failure Epiphany

I see your picture and all I feel is sorrow... 
No hate no love... No barren signs from above 

Can I be you for a while? 
Let me see 
Can you be me for a moment? 
Let it be... Resolution 

Only regret seals the night where I uncover myself... 
For those bygone days amid scenes of dread 

Resolve my love into sheer mercy... 
God knows how many mornings I woke in torment; 
Staring into the daytime void, lost in fault and wonder... 
Walking the fields where poisoned flowers swell 

Embittered into revulsion 

Confused I face how stern and devious is reality 
You conquered me with your delusion, 
Then I vanished into blank pages already written 

Endurance and devotion kills each other, 
And a demon enters our room 
And something dies... 
Something dies inside of me 
Drowns in the vale of tears around me 

With a beacon of hope we could levitate like dancing on air... 
And there in that moment we'll at last find solace; 
Abundance shining greater than any dream 

The morning breaks so cold... so cold 
My face it looks so old... so old... 
I rend my nails on the wall I've built around me 
Only in the shade can I be free... 
Only in the shade I can be... Me
