Antagonism

Lyrics:

Wretched creatures stretch
Through the hoop again 
No fault
Nothing ever gained 
Leave it here how time does cover up
What was believed now turned inside out 
Grasping hand through frantic air 
Clawing upward inching near 
A reason
Enough
To throw it back down in its place 
Crying inward open space 
A chasm that feeds itself 
Rotting food left on the shelf 

Alive yet unaware asking do you really care 
Malefic regard with care 
Witness hides and lies within 

Melting features catch
Through the light remains 
The doubt
Comes rushing back again 
Pull the plug
Sank lifeless
Agitate 
Power unleashed 
Frequent fainting fits 
Clasping a dark embrace 
Let us not lose our place
Remember 

Gazing crystal set
Through it be known 
The truth
Burning bright insane 
As a lamp grows cold 
A fixture on the wall 
Once regarded 
Now bitter rotten flame 
Decrepant quarrel
Old grey film 
Covers eyelids reaching in 
Enough 

Fleeting image cracks 
Moving past the brain 
Relapse
Never to remain 
Throw back in the face 
Dripping plague
Hypocrisy 
Raging to fuel itself 
The parasite one calls itelf 

Listen as the hours pass 
Burn the bridge again 
Rebuild nothings quite the same 
Split process
Clear cut
A single blade 
Retracing the steps so easily mislaid 
Knife in my hand 
To stab at you and make demands 
Discourse at times loses touch within my mind

Answer hides and lies within
