Deceptive Mirrors

Tainted, I stand here ridden with decease
Nail me with a vacant stare, prepare me for release
Sow a scar upon my face
Plans for my resurrection laid to waste
It takes more than me to heal the infected eye
I'd drain me dry to heal the long lost beauty
It takes more than me to seal the infected eye
I'll follow my fate to cut your tongue of hate
Sink further down, let myself drown
In my own self-deception
Watch how the mirrors twist the truth
Sink further down, let myself drown
In my own self-deception
Watch how the mirrors twist the truth
Thoughts designed to destroy the average man
Thoughts designed to erase our confidence
Anger, frustration, the message is now
These are all things that now pressure my soul
I can see your face turning blue
The fire in your eyes is fading too
I can sense the fear running through your veins
As the pictures turn to red
Tainted, I stand here ridden with decease
Nail me with a vacant stare, prepare me for release
Sow a scar upon my face
Plans for my resurrection laid to waste
It takes more than me to heal the infected eye
I'd drain me dry to heal the long lost beauty
It takes more than me to seal the infected eye
I'll follow my fate to cut your tongue of hate
