The Veil of Isis - The Sword

A crack in the mirror of our perfect world Painted a picture we thought we deserved Caught in this image we thought of as life The truth is unveiled... Our lives Were all lies Now we stare The truth in the eye Lost all hope Lost all strength No relief No escape A path through the forest of all our lost minds Wandering wraiths in the vacuum of time Bleeding the truth through a crack in the sky Trapped in a prison world in our own minds Our world Revolving Circling A dying star All lost. consumed by serenity The truth unveiled the true misery Deceived by an image of a perfect world Deceived by the veil All our minds wiped away by the rain Lost inside with nothing to gain Standing in line at tranquility lane Fighting the light while exhaling the pain Soothing sunset Calming silence Witness the revelation Inhale the dust from the real world

We all know what lies behind the walls of deceit These are the thoughts that keep him awake These are the thoughts that keep him awake He contemplates his fate He has to decide He has to decide what it is he truly wants An hour of pleasure or two ruined lives? He has to decide He can't sever the voices from his mind This time no trust, this time What is his choice, not what is his fate To destroy all that is beautiful in not only his life but hers too? What is his choice? What is his choice, not what is his fate To destroy all that is beautiful in not only his life but hers too? Separate the time and place, he has come to the end, the end He holds onto false ideas of what makes a man He thinks no more about the love of another He chooses to only satisfy himself Selfishness is not the word He has chosen but he knows this is wrong And he chooses, and he chooses to be free He inserts... death for lust, she grieves He inserts... death for lust, she grieves He must choose what he wants He must choose what he wants She puts her hands around his weak and sweaty neck He's turned cold blue now He's turned cold blue now He's turned cold blue now He's turned cold blue now He's turned cold blue now There is blood and there are tears for this occasion She can't sever the voices from his mind
