Wilting Lyrics

Face down in the dirt
Hands bound to the earth
Searching every second just to find a reason why
Initiating hatred for the self that I despise
Surfacing depression from complacency
Time forever takes its toll on me
Day after day can't shake this away
Captive by my own mind I cannot escape
Sitting here with all these thoughts
Reasoning with all my faults
Portrayal of the sickening
The hatred emerged
Cast into the shadow of a blackened regret
Igniting malice of the man I want to forget
Can you see I am just like you
Built from the pain life put us through
Held back from desires
My rage breeds in kindled fire
Burning every option for a choice to move away
Embers rising from the ashes passion led astray
Pieces of me are now wilting away
As I see my faults
Your eyes put them at ease
Shut down
Every single spiteful word
From your tattered mind
Cast down
All of the conflicting thoughts
That you orchestrate
Surfacing depression from complacency
Time forever takes its toll on me
Sitting here with all these thoughts
Reasoning with all my faults
Portrayal of the sickening
The hatred emerged
Cast into the shadow of a blackened regret
Igniting malice of the man I want to forget
Pieces of me are now wilting away
As I see my faults
Your eyes put them at ease
