Aspirated

how does it feel to die
staring it right in the face
how does it feel to lie
knowing it makes the blood race
why does it end this way
leaving an empty void inside
why does it stop today
taking that remainder of pride

left to my own devices
a moment that bares crisis


tears fall from my eyes
inside i'm devastated
heart of stone that cries
my soul is now aspirated

what is remaining to take
sober thoughts that are lonely
what else can you forsake
my love my one and only
where's the light at the end
now that times standing still
where's the hand that can mend
now that darkness falls ill

left to my own devices
a moment that bares crisis


tears fall from my eyes
inside i'm devastated
heart of stone that cries
my soul is now aspirated

when did i cross the line
the point of no return
when did i cross the line
there's nothing left to burn

my soul is now....
my soul is now....
aspirated..
aspirated..
