A Fall From Grace

I shot the skies
Turning bright red
Over me rain
The broken hearts

Their tears are dark
My soul is gone
Corrupted love
In torrid times

Flickering lights
Turn off my youth
Nothing to lose
Sick state of mind

Holy the sight
Of innocence
The pestilence
Twisted delights

“The future’s bright”
Not anymore
I will be gone
At twenty-five

How is this fine?
We’re dying here
We kill our peers
Our hearts are ice

This endless fight
Within me swirls
Forces out tears
In wrong and right

I can’t breathe now
Fear I’m too late
Losing my faith
Amongst the crowds

My head’s too loud
I’m drowning here!
I’m lost in fear
I broke my vows

I’m monstrous now
The evil won
I see my hopes
Crash to the ground
