Withered - Clamor Beneath lyrics

rate me

've seen you watch the suffering within your world of hope

Your tears rinse away the shame you've felt from long ago

Your time has been spent seeking the path to righteousness

Each tear will bring you your reward of higher consciousness

Eyes, burn, eyes, numb

You clamor, strive to keep the grace of narcissistic peers

They watch you, misshapen and distorted through their callous tears

Sufferers, distraught with self pity

Cleansing your pain with empty tears

Mass congregation, breeding ignorance

Corrupting the path, like those before you

Each day I wake, I suffer moments of clarity

Moments of realization and truth

I look out upon the masses, I look down upon the masses

Sympathy sways to disregard

The weight of humanity presses upon me

Thorns of contempt and of disgust

Strip away all my compassion

Caricatures, in words and deeds

Eyes, burn, numb

Drown in tears
