Hollow

Bereft of heart

Time hemorrhaging

Bleeding

Torn apart

Soul atrophied

The fires

That forged our souls

The embers have gone dark



Our eyes so blind we can't see

Our minds die as our souls weep

The life choked out by the hand that feeds



A final knife

In the back

The wound

Straight through the heart



Our eyes so blind we can't see

Our minds die as our souls weep

The life choked out by the hand that feeds

The air so thin we can't breathe

Our souls decay as our minds sleep

Our backs broken by the hands that feed
