Filth and Understanding

[The Rod]

A whisper from the dark

A slight not to be undone

Floats along the breeze

But crumbles under the weight of ones pain

A mask

Now daily wear

Hiding the secrets detrimental to conscience

Bitter to the taste

Abusive to the soul that is left behind

No words can reach above

Though those whispers were indeed screams

Reaching for pity and understanding

Instead finding hands basked in filth and regret

The future lies low

Cleanliness is never to be seen again

Deterioration setting in as the mind nears numbness

So where do we go from here, you say

I'll tell you where

We go on.

We go on...

No words can reach above

Though those whispers were indeed screams

Reaching for pity and understanding

Instead finding hands basked in filth and regret

The future lies low

Cleanliness is never to be seen again

Deterioration setting in as the mind nears numbness

Totally AWESOME!

So where do we go from here, you say

I'll tell you where

We go on.

We go on...
