Eyes of Coal
Of A Lesser Person
Sunken
Found
In A Pit of Self Sacrifice
You know you're a bit
Too Late
To Pull me Back
I could flap aimlessly
But for every ounce of emotion
Ground breaking reality
I'm pulled under
And I'm Lost
Lost
To You Entirely
Whereas I'm not Who I Once Was
Separate
Entities
Formed on a Whim
You'd take my life
As Your Own
Or Simply
You'd take my life
For My Sake
Simply because
I've lost my footing
I'm crouched
Humbly low
I'm down and Out
I'm Afraid
Air thickens with soot
And Hesitation
You tighten your Grip
The Kind that binds
Sweat of Pre-Guilt
Drip into Your Soul
Long Gone
But You fear No
God
No Retribution
None Can Stop You
When You pull the trigger
And Lips move to form
Words
I'll never Get
To hear You Say
