Guardians

Don't be so scared of the face staring back at you

as your lungs begin to race, i'll be the blood in your veins

Don't hold yourself responsible for their disregards

won't you look better when you're alone

Through open eyes we'll see right through

all of the lies you hide behind

We'll break down all of the walls that separate us

from the underlying truth

With eyes like knives they're cutting through your back

we itch like hives for acceptance

As we approach the end

we'll find clarity

in time our wounds will mend

but until that day comes

show us the way

I won't watch my aspirations slip between my fingertips

i'll keep on searching through the dark until the lights are lit

Remove the veil covering your lying face.
