Fighting for An Endless Facade
By: Cory L.W. Clark
A hand for a hand unites the world
But if a hand isn't there
The chain falls in failure
Intended or not
You're breaking and unmaking
What do you see?
What do you think?
Question your motives
Look at your progress
See where you fail
Or where you thought you succeeded
Look at the wounds healed
Or at the scars you've made
Make better?
Or make it worse?
Think of where you lie
Where do you think you're going?
Either dig yourself a new grave
Or make a home in the one you're in
~Think instead of die~
You can't unmake pain
You can only make more
Either make new tactics
Or fail forevermore
~Help instead of lie~
A ghost can't offer a helping hand
The dead offer no hope
But when the living beg for forgiveness
Noone sheds them a tear
Till they join our ranks
Stay dead?
Or come alive?
Don't beg for what you don't deserve
If you take back what you said you had
Don't offer a hand to help
If all you do is fail
You'll kill with those ended words
Don't say what you can't do
Seek the truth?
Or rot in lies?
Trick the ones you hold dear
Convert them to your syndicate
Lead the innocent
Into a blood bathed trap
~Cure instead of shred~
You made your mess the way you wanted
You clean or rot
Live with the life you made
Whether you like it or not
~Come out of the where you've fled~
A mind that offered it's corruption
For those still sacred inside
Followed it's ill intent
No hope lies in it's bloody seduction
Just memories of all that died
Not even a chance to repent
Once you follow death
He'll show you hell
But even the infernal
Can change it's tone
Instead of a convoy to doom
It can craft true hope
But only if it sheds it's skin
To reveal what truly lies within
~Save instead of end~
Think not with your blackened mind
But with a heart that still bathes in light
And the more you lead to hope
The more that live to fight
~Kill your enemy not your friend~
Only chaos and ruin comes
When you fight for an endless facade...
