The Light That Blinds

A crack forms in the foundation

A fault line through your defenses

Illuminates the essence

Once clouded by a myth

Store bought conformity

Force-fed duality, I warp reality

The comfort that you will find

As you remain hidden

The light betrays

casting your true self away

You remain blind

As vanity possesses me

I am turning further away

Gripped by a belief in empty words

Driven by a need to prove

Store bought conformity

Force-fed duality, I warp reality

The comfort that you will find

As you remain hidden

The light betrays

casting your true self away

You remain blind

The shell may wither

But the fire burns eternal

You hide behind

...cower...

The light that blinds

The comfort that you will find

As you remain hidden

The light betrays

casting your true self away

You remain blind

Will never find

What burns inside

You remain blind

Behind the light.
