Mud and Clay

I'm seeding with deceit
 Shadows gather in the streets
 They compensate the lost when we bleed
 Now see me smile as I fail again
 ♪
 As I exhale upon the touch of the divine
 All I see is gray systematic decline
 Of a world build on lies, especially mine
 ♪
 I wish this mind was stripped from decay
 So little built on the ruins of all that failed
 Lost the tools, and lost the vision, and with a shaking hand I gave up the wood and nails
 Just to start over with mud and clay
 ♪
 A creature descended one day
 An angel covered in a veil
 For me to lift away
 ♪
 But a habit had descended one day
 On a man in fundamental decay
 He got stuck with this old reflection
 No matter what he did, he couldn't change it
 An eerie panic and fear then swept in
 Cuz that creature she had settled herself deep
 And he buried that little creep so deep
 So deep, ohh so deep that you wouldn't believe it.
