The Nail That Split The Hammer

The Nail That Split The Hammer

I'll decipher the new apocalypse, if worth it to bear
Like the cycle of human consciousness, and birth of despair
I'll search for what's uncertain.. Work on what's there
'Cause what hurts another person, ain't concern for what's fair..
There's no truth here.. Only perspective
And the hopes for the new year are slowly neglected..
Lonely, rejected; evolution of open godlessness
Happy New Years, resolutions and broken promises..
Black cloud, cast-down; city teeming with hopelessness
I am it's weathered soul, showing signs of previous ownership..
Mischevious openness, reeks of devious showmanship
I've found that without faith.. Is easiest to cope with it
And still..? Had a hard time believing you could be that hollow
It ain't the shepherd that bothers me, it's the sheep that follow..
Feed the disease, breeding a greed that swallows
And you think you've got these demons deceived, but.. I know..
