Hollow Answer...

Hollow answer.
We follow your advance.
The unspeakable.
Gullible.

We're deemed terrible.
Unbearable guilt yet we endure.
Obscure to what is true.

Help me stray from the masses.
This ballet of sorrow.
Faithless hymns we're being forced to sing.
Suffering from within.
Still I take the stage.
Confined within a cage of arms.

Insane pariah.
Your chain calls you.
Walls are rising.
Belong, reject, belong.

We're deemed bullshit.
Desperate filth yet we endure.
Obscure to what is true.

There's no tomorrow.
All my time is borrowed.
The grime is a blight against my soul.
I am no longer whole.
Why can't you just see that?
I'll deny any freedom you'll provide.

Consumed by the dark.
Doomed to forever remain a slave.
My weary sigh gives a hollow answer...
