Emptiness And Lies

If feels like I'm used up again.
See the scars and the burns from where I've been,
While outside there's emptiness and lies,
And these frozen tears dried out desert eyes.
Just once I'd like to see it end up better
Than these disasters that I know.
Another night standing on the outer reaches,
So close to you but miles away.
Yet satisfied with nothing less,
As your words and thoughts are just another test.

So now, you fade from the pictures we've appeared within, like rust beyond the frame.
Just a vacancy like so many time I've been alone, but never felt the same.

Existence, call it sin.
No trace of where I've been.
Each day, your image fades and I brace my barricades.
They say humanity will fail relentlessly.

So now, you fade from the pictures we've appeared within, like rust beyond the frame.
Just a vacancy like so many time I've been alone, but never felt the same.
