Acrimonious Transcendence

Lyrics:

© Dace
I send my heart into her arms
As she unveils a memory of times that are few and far between
Yet draw us deeper within

A bleeding heart, a sacrifice that couldn’t heal if time sufficed
Left to dwell on memories that draw me deeper within

Chained to these lies, burning Inside
A lifetime enduring misery
Decaying my mind, thoughts which turn time
Into an endless suffering

Take me back Into your arms
Where this light doesn’t burn my eyes
This is all we have left
Memories of a broken past

I send my heart into her arms
A fool’s errand undeserving of such malice that infects this man
As he becomes her puppetry

Cowardice, fear, and desire elope this mind to start the fire
That burns red with trickery, a marionette for all to see

Chained to her lies, dying inside
Never-ending life of misery
Decaying my mind, cruel by design
Crucified for another belief

Cut so deep that I bleed
Show me life is within
Give me meaning to this grief
Release me from your touch and set me free

(Crawling through dark and cold night, praying someone turns out the light)

Take me back into your arms
Where this light doesn’t burn my eyes
Cut me deep so I bleed
Show me life you kept from me

She speaks to me in sliver tongues
Pulls on my strings and ties the knot, turns my tears into venomous hate
Dragging me six feet below

As the ground crumbles beneath me, meaningless words come in between
A scriptured list of failures, left to read by none of us
