Beneath Bruised Skies

Leaving visions of blurred souls
seeking light, finding utter nothingness.

Trapping spirits in their nightmares
the perfect quiet, a shattered noise
crumbles behind white walls

Underneath darkened skies
folding under lead rain, falling to pieces

Bleeding angel's tears
falling on the shoulders of the wicked
turning holy beings into demons

Hiding behind the mask
of a fallen idol, a familiar stranger
shying away from death's glances

Clutching onto that last shred of reality
the truth behind her eyes
the bitterness in his lies

Wavering under pressure
a shadow, dissolving in the day's cruel light
the illusion of a perfect world

A stolen piece of a broken mind
the only piece that ever made sense to you.

Do you understand now?
