Righteous engagement of thoughts Set forth the crumbling of our souls Business knows no end, even to the d**h Friend or foe, raising its unnerving head Tormented by the gestures unknowing I see the lies behind your eyes Puzzling how it comes to this But I guess, I had it coming Stabbed in the heart again The charade of life and a knife From a friend watching our dreams fall apart Caught up in the parade of scars Humanity only breeds d**h Yet, continue to believe in each other Put my life out on the table And let them feast upon it Inked in pain, a reminder of what they do Heading not by contrast Is this the course never ending? If this isn't hell then bow me now I lay my life out for the vultures They pick me up and tear me down
