9 Years - Paria

Counterfeit eyes stare off into the distance

Looking past every word I’ve said and everything I’ve ever done for you

Make me whole again and make thse tears come to and end

Help me find a way and help me find a reason to live again

The sun’s too bright for me to look into

So i’ll stay here and wait

For time to mend this broken man

Tomorrow I’ll be dead again

Today’s the same as yesterday and yesterday is the same as today

It never changes

Why waste life feeling pain?

Now I know not which is worse

To live or die

Is a choice I’v emade on my own

I’ve slipped into a pool of my own sorrow and it’s here I’ll stay

With no questions asked

And with no remorse

Because It won’t matter

This is all a joke and it’s been taken far too far

But I won’t complain and I won’t say a single word

I’ll just sit and watch as the lights above me dim

I’ll sit and watch this world fall apart

Right in front of me

Now you shatter and I rush to sweep up the pieces

In hopes to find redemption

I could have saved you yet again I slip and fall

Your face fills me with pity for those who hide from the truth
