Strongarm

I refuse to shudder in the face of sacrifice
Undying, the legacy of truth shines through adversity
The furnace of affliction could not absolve it
And you in your high chair comfort
Stagnant thoughts, the accolades of arrogance
Wear them like a crown
Heart painted scarlet and your followers follow you down
Now drown in your contradictions turned religion
Its beauty will be consumed by the grave
For death is to feed on these things
And more, the power which they have given you will cease
Still more bitter than death
Is to walk in silence
Is to die discontent
Is to gaze in the eyes of your maker
And to no love, only resentment
This is more bitter than death itself
Ive seen the face of redemption, Ive closed my eyes
Ive felt the hand of grace, mend my broken heart
Ive pierced my saviors sidefeel, with deceit and lies
In the mist of betrayal, still repentance waits
And this I resolved within myself
My adversary will no longer be my master
For this I weep bitterly in the night
I sought shelter in sleep but, sleep is restless without hope
I looked for a thread of hope, but he was frail, laid, fabric
Slowly, wearing
I have no use for remorse save for learning
Slowly, wearing
I have no use for remorse yet, it consumes me
