House Of Cards - Deviated Instinct

The old light of dawn

All is still

The shadows retreat

Anger has passed

Eyes still weary

Sanity prevails

Coming 'round but not to your way of thought

Your ivory tower pierced those high & mighty clouds

A closed circle of friends

With the grip of impotent weaklings

So alone in your farce of brotherhood

The house of cards crumbles

Indifference

A life long friend

A warmth of unique comfort

As the cards fall and attitudes change

Only time can tell

And it will

It will

Now so still

This river of life

The rapids passed

But never the last

Mere ripples on the apathy you kindled

The river’s strength lies far from the banks

Perfection is for dreamers

The self-righteous fools

And when their dream dies

What then will they have?

A hand that claws the air

And a heart filled with misery

Your forethought

Life mapped out

I’ve no time for your ambitious career

As rays of sunlight awaken the sleeper

The light breaks through, eyes open with a start

Only the sands of time know the morrow

The past is passed, and my eyes see the dawn that is new
