XI - Tainted Skies

Your touch once felt like a flame

Now my skin burns under the rain

I’m weary from the weight of my own misery

Captivated with your twisted ties

Isolated in your tainted skies

I’m weary from the weight of my own misery

Flowers have fade and your eyes turned to grey

Your colors are darker and worse is my pain

Shattered glass and broken dreams

Above the floor I’m shedding skins

To the core you scarred my frame

On my head you put the blame

All I want is peace right now

I’m looking for a place to hide

But you handed me the knife

Ruling over tainted skies

Cause you’re breathing my oxygen

Your words are all lies again

I’m kneeling in front of them

Praying for my life

Breathing my oxygen

Your words are all lies again

I’m kneeling in front of them

Praying for my life

Left undead at the wake of your storm

My body’s bruised and my spirit’s worn

Let the veil grow around my heart

And wait for tomorrow
