LAMENTA SILËNS ÆTERNA

Conducting
Within a realm of total silence
Conducing
The shadows to fall 'round
No one
Can hear my soundless screaming
My wails of sorrow
Echoing in my mind

And so I'll bleed forever
Crimson anguish mixed within
The blackened tears of endless apathy
I've been given
Chilling ice has wrought them ashen

Consuming
The lack of honest feeling
Bewildered
By these flashing neon lights
Where am I?
Amid eternal chaos
I cannot find my way back home
I'm stranded within halls of a false hope

And so I'll grieve forever
I'll never please - despite I've tried
Freakish abnormality
Scorn is all I earn for
Constant attempts at the truth

Tell me why
Why cannot there be acceptance?
Tell me how
How can I be expected to live?
When all around
Everyone I see is dead - and yet they seem so happy
I cannot and will not
Ever be like them

LIVE A LIE!!!

Horrid monster
Nonconformist
Names we're given
Those who seek the truth
And the only time they seem to care
Is when we tell it to them (yearning for an end)
Not because they truly worry
But for they cannot understand
How can we not enjoy in happy
In their merry little wonderfulness land (the brightness is blinding)
Their Garden of Grand Delusion

So...
Should I stay or go?
Fate - like the edge of a knife
Please
Just give me one good reason?
I've got one good reason...
