I'm seeding with deceit Shadows gather in the streets They compensate the lost when we bleed Now see me smile as I fail again As I exhale upon the touch of the divine All I see is gray systematic decline Of a world build on lies, especially mine I wish this mind was stripped from decay So little built on the ruins of all that failed Lost the tools, and lost the vision, and with a shaking hand I gave up the wood and nails Just to start over with mud and clay A creature descended one day An angel covered in a veil For me to lift away But a habit had descended one day On a man in fundamental decay He got stuck with this old reflection No matter what he did, he couldn't change it An eerie panic and fear then swept in Cuz that creature she had settled herself deep And he buried that little creep so deep So deep, ohh so deep that you wouldn't believe it.
