Crooked Walls

Faith misplaced
 I grew accustomed to the life you gave
 But after all these years
 You were lying to my face
 Corrupted by the one you called,
 "You have nothing to worry about"
 Do you feel whole now?
 After leaving us trapped between these crooked walls
 Do you feel whole now?
 While abandoning me you forgot responsibility
 Time moved slowly
 As the echo faded softly
 You know I tried
 But your words still lost their life
 When meaning left me in our shattered debris
 I hope your choices haunt you for eternity
 We were left with the ghost of what could be
 When I see you in my dreams my skin crawls
 Knowing that a broken home is all she's seen
 Till you were dead inside
 You covered up your lies
 Back then we cared for each other
 Now you're the mother that's abandon
 ed her daughter
 I can live without you
 But what you don't realize is she shouldn't have to
 The delusions of grandeur that fill your head
 They're only bringing you to the end
 Look what you've become
 You gave it all up
 We were left with the ghost of what could be
 When I see you in my dreams my skin crawls
 Knowing that a broken home is all she's seen
 Haunted by regret
 You'll walk the earth alone
 Lost to the family you'd know
