Lossing Faith

Loss of hope

As soon as we are all born we begin to die

As we grow we are filled with lies

Lies that spill out over time

We are simply the dead carcasses that life devours

Life is no better than death

I often do wish to take my last breath

Life is no more than an infection

I often just sit waiting, praying for it to fade

As it slowly goes away

Into this scar to remind us of the once had pain

Faithless Man

Carry not, her soul

It is god who deserves to be buried

Who wears the cries to show?

Misery in me

It’s a mystery

I would gladly sell my soul

To the one who could save her?

When the systems crash

Go on reach out for your goal

Make me suffer

With shards of tainted glass

They cut right through my being

No apologies

Take ME lifeless on the slab

To God’s palace

Please let ME take her place

Let MY spirit fade

In this wooden box

Let MY body rot

Under dirt

I am cursed

A holy betrayal in God’s hands

As true as I stand

In this condemned land

We are all damned

In the end

Your God is absent

And I’m just this faithless man

Asking for a bargain

Let her live, take all I am
