Dissolved In Emerald Waves

As spirits wreath in winds, unseen
And darkness covets all
It would be all too easy to assume
The truths not what it seems
The truths just as you claim
But isn't that just a lie?

I swallowed shit, I took the knocks
I played the games
Shunned all the lies
And took the pleasure with the pain
And looking back I'd like to think I kept my dignity
Your eyes were gates to emerald waters

They drowned me
I should've walked away so long ago
If only I'd of known
It wouldn't hurt to just let go

When I close my eyes
I recall the days I used to bide
Waiting till the time was right
To get you the fuck out of my life
You wanted love? Or just a toy?
Either way you got it

In a downward spiral, time elapsed
Opportunities pissed away on tap
I remained too blind too see
Unashamed to say I cried sometimes
Just thinking what could have been
But those tears fell selfishly

Close your legs, just this once
You could swallow the sun with that thing

God and goddess I ask of thee
To show this person the troubles they have caused
And make it come back times three
