Entering a foreign space
Where dimmer lights illuminate
Exposing weathered paths to somewhere deeper
The roots will rise above our heads
And tie us both to separate beds
And wear us down to nothing but a memory
O’ deception
Can old remains still be of note?
For I am one in solemn float
Forever drifting further from direction
And I cut away the final tie
The tether tied to you and I
As we slip away sink beneath the memory
O’ deception
Beneath the soil there lay a man
Once held the world within in his hand
But threw it to the woman he loved dearly
And she clapped her hands in mocking tone
And he felt the force in every bone
Till all remained of her was the memory
O’ deception
A stairway on that weathered path
A promise that could lead us back
To where we once danced beneath the moonlight
But the steps were drawn with tired eyes
Deceived by a mind he now despised
And at his feet the stairway fades to memory
O’ deception
The light now flickers on and off
As I become a desperate moth
Aimlessly attracted to the mystery
And confusion lays with me tonight
And lays the way you used to lie
No closure could compose this tortured memory
O’ deception
(First time ever showing my work off I wanna know where I’m at with it)
