Bleak ruins reality, emptyness, misery

Covered by night I write this bitter diary

Paper of my own skin, a pen of pointed pin

Document of the fall, a lament for us all

Shallow breath, empty haze, reaching for final faze

When nothing does matter, when nothing means better

Before we disappear , before we're gone

We must make sure that we destroy what we have done

Creeping shadows fill our veins and build a wall

Around our hearts and clouds of pain seem to explode

Tortured souls frightened of that rain

Just only afterglows to remain

That we used to dream the same dream but no more

Words do betray sometimes, letters flash back sometimes

Mining back out old blame, raising the speed of pain

Lost souls so cold not meant to grow up and fly

I still remember when I felt compassion

For all that we have gained, for all that we have fashioned

(how) greedily have we loved what we've achieved

Forgetting what we once have all believed

Page after page

I tear and burn

Page after page

Creeping shadows fill our veins and build a wall

Around our hearts and clouds of pain seem to explode

Tortured souls frightened of that rain

Just only afterglows to remain

That we used to dream the same dream

We used to built our velvet realm

But no more!
