Deceiver - Barrén

Tell me the truth, you always wanted me to fail

So I could never live up to you.

Caught in the past, I never thought it would

Come to this.

Silence

Has never sounded so sweet,

But it’s lost its appeal.

Noise

Surrounds me with every step

I can’t walk away.

No compassion,

No love for what I am.

Smothered with neglect.

Well it’s all the same to me.

«I knew you’d disappoint,

I knew it from the start.

It was never meant to be,

And now it’s tearing us apart.»

I hope you never know

How heavy this burden is.

I can’t move on.

Stasis

Rejection

Halted

Progress

Fueled by indifference, guilt and shame.

Everyone I’ve ever loved

Has turned their back.

I can only hope

They forget my face;

Fade to memory.
