My eyes have already seen
The deflation of dreams
Eat your secrets and
Hide under covers

Power by iniquitous means
Bereft of humanity
The "Second Coming" is a
Second hand thought for the weak

I've tried to comfort and
I've tried to please
Alleviate the
Burden of Reality

Taunt me
With your
Contrived lives
You know that

I can see your mistakes
From a mile away
Pushing
Cornering me

Fortune
Subsequently
Is not the thing I'm searching for
You'll never know me

And for this....

I'll lie in wait for your grace
Set me free
I'll hope and pray that one day
You'll see me

Fated and dangerous you see me
Not what I can be
Dismissed as extreme

My eyes have already seen
The deflation of dreams
Eat your secrets and
Hide under covers

Power by iniquitous means
Bereft of humanity
The "Second Coming" is a
Second hand thought for the weak

You bound and lock me away
Compromise me each day
Just to fill your
Immodest ego

Power perpetuates from
Destructive phrases like
"The end of the world is near..."
It's already here

I can see your mistakes
From a mile away
Pushing
Cornering me

Fortune
Subsequently
Is not the thing I'm searching for
You'll never know me

And for this...

I'll lie in wait for your grace
Set me free
I'll hope and pray that one day
You'll see me

Fated and dangerous you see me
Not what I can be
Dismissed as extreme
