There you are
Standing on a stack of your thoughts
Alone once more staring at a lifeless body

Wondering aloud
Am I so blind, not to see it coming
Answered inside by the simple

Dropping of your head

Look into a stranger's eyes

Fall into his trap
Curious and intrigued
Led down his wicked path of deception


Living a lie the hole keeps getting deeper
See the shapeless form

Where a man once threatened to grow
See the shell of love where eternity
Surely could have blossomed

In a pile of past lessons, never to be learned

Look into a stranger's eyes

Fall into his trap
Curious and intrigued
Led down his wicked path of deception


Temptations claws make a powerful man weak
A coward reasons

Name another who would be so strong
You mistake a tomb for a castle
The dead weight of sand for gold

And a smile for a moment
A fleeting moment can erase your greatest fear
