Paroles de Monstrance

The enchantment is broken forever The bonds are severed, now brush away these puppet strings No more will I dance to the steady beat of your lies Get this through your head: We are done The future in your eyes is washed away in reality's tide And my blind faith is washed away in reality's tide Infallibility is washed away in reality's tide The ebb and flow that once drew me back Has ground me to shore while you're lost at sea Wave after wave after wave after wave, the truth finally revealed Patience worn away, sympathy worn away How long did we drag this out? Would you have let me go on forever? How many times did you look me in the eye and lie to my face? Were you laughing the whole time? Or did you look to me in pity and disgust? Now we have escaped from beneath the shadow of Ouroboros, misery perpetual Now I've turned my back on emotional wreckage Now I've paid respects to the corpse of hopeful dreams Now silence surrounds, silence can be broken By reminiscence, by self-recrimination You were right, you're not a good person And you're not worth my time, you were You were right
