Confess

(album: Ai640, Pt. 2 - 2017)

Every day I feel a new attachment
I feel the fear in her skin and I hate that it's lasted
Her eyes tell the story of, a violent touch
Though she tries just to mask it

You can confide in me she says
Cut free of all this distress
Cleanse your mind, and redefine

Is this a tactic to gain my control, ensure my support, to make sure that she's sheltered

I sense some truth in her eyes
But if this leads us to my demise
Where is earth in this conflict?

History could just repeat, and maybe it's just something we should just leave

Even through my great reservations
Can't help but grow more fond
Been given many revelations
For a second I swore I saw her soul
Escape her mouth as she told me of all her devastations

I held her tight, through that cold winter night
The sound of a sick serenade, children being slain, and should she know that I'm all to blame

A feeling I thought I had felt, sympathy and apathy these were traits that I had just shut out

Just quit now, can I be forgiven if I just quit now?

I spilled the blood of several thousand
Could you still feel my soul?
If I was lost and I didn't know?

They say "blessed are the meek"
If I can't be reconciled, what's my destiny?

It was cold, and sky was black placed in a gaze then something in me snapped, just sick of hiding myself, and pretending to be, something more than human, someone that could relieve the pain for them, their emptiness

There's things you should know, things I've suppressed and now it's time for me to show
