Extinguished Light

Grasping the cowardice that brought us here
 Willing old faults to surface
 And continue carrying us to ruin
 The narrow tunnel of light further closing in
 Enveloping the already dying
 There is no road to redemption
 The paradox is that we are ever more disparate
 Ever more divergent
 Out of reach of repair
 Yet never untied from the other
 Never unbound from what's etched into the husk
 Never absolved
 (Stripped from each fragment of bone)
 Recurring endless
 ♪
 Shattered resolve
 ♪
 Fractured and forbidden to witness
 Sheltered from the agony
 Of self dissent
 ♪
 In
 The face
 Of all
 In reversal
 They were worthless
 ♪
 Pitiful and hopeless
 ♪
 Extinguish
 
 This light
 Which befell us
 We have proven
 To be unworthy
 Extinguish
 This light
 Which befell us
 Pitch black
