Silence

This is how it ends
Where this circle leads
Is this what you thought it would be?
You know this face
You have seen these eyes
The ones that you helped design
Said I would call on you someday
Offer you peace and then silence
A chance to lay rest to things
And now I ask of you one thing
Help me to see through the violence
So I can feel whole again
The picture you painted was me
Am I who you thought it would be?
Now as I help you release
This circle will die as you bleed
Hey now Mr. Survivor
Look what you’ve done
What you’ve made
The gift that you gave to them
Your sad secret was safe from the moment
you opened the door and offered your scars to me
Said I will call on you someday
Offer you peace and then silence
A chance to lay rest to things
And now I ask of you one thing
Help me to see through the violence
So I can feel whole again
The picture you painted was me
Am I who you thought it would be?
Now as I help you release
This circle will die as you bleed
Hey there Mr. Survivor
Do you believe there’s a fate we are born to?
A place we will arrive with all of the answers
What do you see when you stare in the eyes of your fate become?
Liar!
