Beyond the Pale

I wonder if this is what does us in?
Have we arrived at where the end begins?
What we stood for in ashes
Scattered across our bitter divide
Brace yourself for impact
On the edge of collapse
But if I wake I’ll find
I will find my way out
Of this endless tragedy
Your eyes are bruised shut
And you’ve drifted out
I hope you find what you desperately want
Beyond the pale
I fracture myself no matter what it takes
Destruction’s beautiful when it induces change
I’ve spilled enough of myself
But still you can’t
Voice a single word
We have collapsed
But if I wake I’ll find
I will find my way out
Of this endless tragedy
Your eyes are bruised shut
And you’ve drifted out
I hope you find what you desperately want
Beyond the pale
A faint breath
Piercing through disaster
Truth breaks the teeth
Of all the doubt
Don’t quit, and breathe
Steadily break the teeth
Of those who come to reap
What remains free
I’ll find, I will find my way out
Of this endless tragedy
Your eyes are bruised shut
And you’ve drifted out
I hope you find what you desperately want
But if I wake I’ll find
I will find my way out
Of this endless tragedy
Your eyes are bruised shut
And you’ve drifted out
I hope you find what you desperately want
Beyond the pale
