A dimness exists where beauty used to
The shade that covers this room is enough to suffocate a pair of lungs with the purest air
To lose sight of searching for meaning has become a common occurrence
A wasteland has formed from the ashes of bridges, together, we have burned
Each day blurs together without definition since the moment we last spoke
From here there is only forward
A blind walk through the ruins
A constant reminder of what we once had
An epitaph we wrote for our past but I know somehow this is where we belong
Attached to the ground but in separate directions
A compromise that could no longer bare the weight that was covering it
An erosion that was noticed too late
A step out for the hope of clarity, a stark contrast between a familiar reality
The ground is weaker here, there is hardly a ray of light
A fog of dust covers everything completely and the world continues to suffocate
There is no so such thing as victory
The world will subtract from and degrade a foundation carved from purest stone
How can anything survive without being poisoned by the cruelty placed on its head like a crown
Slowly burning, altering memories of what's been understood as truth
Eroded by time and neglect
A vision of purpose fades in distance
