Aimless

(album: Be Consumed - 2022)

Arrogance became our peace
Ignorance cultivated our ease
Monoliths glorify
Symbolic tokens to our fractured lives

Recompense is no longer an option
We failed to see through every distraction
All of us, you and I
Sow the seeds of our demise

Still we won't see what others see
Still we feign deaf when others speak
Will we know how wrong it feels
When all our thoughts become so real?
We found ourselves
Searching for something else

Left to wonder
If the good we've done only went ignored
We wander aimless
Thinking maybe that we're just on our own
Left to abandon hope

Acclimated to a state of decay
Fragile minds intertwined with dismay
Apprehensive to identify what's inside
Our very nature only leading us blind

A peace that we could never comprehend
A calming voice inside our head and yet
We find ourselves
Searching for something else

Left to wonder
If the good we've done only went ignored
We wander aimless
Thinking maybe that we're just on our own
We're just on our own
Left to abandon hope

When will we see
Good was not enough
Faith was only luck
We must reverse
What's been scarred by our mistakes
Broken and defaced

Left to wonder
If the good we've done only went ignored
We wander aimless
Thinking maybe that we're just on our own
