Each day like the one before it
A dreary life in monotone
Just a faceless drone
We walk these halls in silence
Keep our heads down, and tow the line
We bide our time
But as I walk, you pa** me by
And for a moment, we lock eyes
A look of love, a look of trust
Reminds me I'm not some mere husk
Our daydreams long forgotten
Our hopes and dreams left to decay
In disarray
Still there remains a glimmer
A hint of flame behind your eyes
And all that it implies
They tried their best to break us
And they succeeded to a degree
Indentured devotees
These precious, fleeting moments
Sustain us through the meaningless
Like Mercy's sweet caress
