My Ruin - The Absence

Their flies,

Circle halos over this emptiness

Where the breathing gets older

And my lips grow colder

When these rains get thinner through the burden

And this buried dream

We must reap what these eyes now see

This is where my heart now dissipates

You disintegrate

I will fill the heavens no more with this never ending wake

While I promise death

To a bled hearts beating

Open arm seething

This monument to the dimming heights

Where the tears and blood are always awry

And for the millions of staggering swine

Who teeter aimless to the open sky

Trudging slowly

Over the dead

Where the days now end

Silent and gray

In a grave to lay

Crumbling hope

And my end of days

Far too tired to burn this bright

When mountains will topple and send your fears alight

The wonder in this stay

And hells price to pay

My ruin this infatuation

In the endless, I’m so far away

My ruin this infatuation

In the endless, I’m so far away

My ruin this infatuation

In the endless, I’m so far away

Their flies,

Circle halos over this emptiness

Where the breathing gets older

And my lips grow colder

When these rains get thinner through the burden
