Played the fool for a while
now the lame man is broken
at your feet where the lies
destroyed me
All the pieces of mine
rest in shame of my choices
I just wanted to thrive
exploited
Every second that I gave was for nothing
and now I parade an empty vessel
half the man I desire to resemble
Lost
How could you leave me
Forced
Your illness lived through me
Caught
in the fire I danced in for the thrill
I went in with no warning
but the outcome was chosen
In my Decadence
I left it all to you
In my Decadence
I broke my heart for you
Every second that I gave was for nothing
and now I parade an empty vessel
I deserve this pain, I’m so ashamed
With time
we start to learn
after it all
we’re human
We have to burn
to lose the game
and when we fall
start again
Stand strong
on ground divine
a humble rise
to what is right
