Spineless

A spineless coward
Is all I see in the reflection

Dig down
As if the feeling the lingers
Inside of me
Oh, so certain

Of this
Bleeding and suffering
My fading pressence decays
Into the void within

Have you ever reflected on the past
Just to feel regret wash over?
And the precious moments didn't last?

All that remains
Is a hollow shell
Of what once was
Feeble and broken I waste away

A spineless coward
Is all see in the reflection
I've wasted years
Chasing after every imperfection

This pseudo reality
I placed myself
Inside this husk of a shallow life
Lifeless but moving still
To make the climb
Out from the depths of contrition

I have doomed myself
To a hollow end
Left to descend
Ever deeper

This pseudo reality
I placed myself
Inside this husk of a shallow life
Lifeless but moving still
To make the climb
Out from the depths of contrition

Bleed myself
Within the hell that I create
Never forgiving my sins that I pay for
Led astray to a burning
And bitter end
Take me away to the fire
Ignite me
No longer alive but somehow breathing
Merely conscious to succumb to this world
Bury me
