Poem to song?
Eh, a poem a wrote, thinking about tweeking it to make a light acoustic song....
yes or no? (say no, but if you dont like it, be nice, hehe)
A city in the mirror
Unaware of devastation
Glycerin lights and buildings
Tainted in pixilation
Crimson red skies above
The blurs of light and sound
Yet the world is oblivious
The puppets are confound
The scream becomes a whisper
The whisper melts away
And all along the fading path
Sanity falls astray
Faith dies, religion cries
Tears of acid rain
Morality is tensing fast
The seams begin to strain
It all adds up, it all breaks down
Resurface at square one
Running in a poisoned circle
We end where we’ve begun
Pointing fingers, passing blame
The open wound is bleeding
Patching up the forgotten souls
Keep the torment breeding
Die and rot, live and sink
It all becomes the same
Take the pill, force your hand
Harbor all your shame
Confine your pride, curse this life
Suffer for your greed
Take the anguish, make it whole
Plant the forsaken seed
Impregnate the lie you live
Nurture the faltered lust
Ignite the feeble fuse
And let your soul combust
All seems lost, redemption foiled
Giving up the fight
But in every pitch black sinkhole
There always shines a light.
Crawling, walking, sprinting on
Embrace your own rebirth
Or offer your stained soul to death
And see how much its worth
