Mob of Shadows

Burning the bridges bringing us together
You bring the oil, I'll bring the feathers
They'll provide the rope, Use the tree of life
Don't let me escape, Pull it tight
The deadly masque dances naive circles
The masked Reaper read our hidden journals
Exposing our fears, Chaining us to secrets
Drowning us in shame, Burning our pyres
The mob of shadows mock our foolish ways
We burn candles, But still they stay
Flickering our fate across dirty stain-glassed walls
Showing our path, But losing us in the halls
Losing the war we've waged on the world
Spying on their games, It's finally unfurled
All the blueprints of our failure, Lying in wait
Telling of our lies, Our love, Our hate
