Scorned

[Verse 1]
Scorned
Thoughts like water in a cracked glass
Leaked out, seeping through cracks in the floor
Plunging into the void
Created to be destroyed

[Chorus]
Eyes are closed, sight wide open
Trying to fight the weight of conscience
Siphoning out all life
One shriveled husk at a time

[Refrain]
Plunging into the void
Created to be destroyed

[Chorus]
Eyes are closed, sight wide open
Trying to fight the weight of conscience
Siphoning out all life
One shriveled husk at a time

[Verse 2]
On hideous display for all to see
Carried out by the vultures, the scavengers
The bottom-feeders, just like dogs
Lapping it up
Consuming, controlling
The center of it all has fallen apart
Falling through the fingers
Exhausted and used up

[Bridge]
The mere thought excruciating
Mutating once good intentions
Excoriated, emaciated
Abandoned, laid to waste

[Chorus]
Eyes are closed, sight wide open
Trying to fight the weight of conscience
Siphoning out all life
One shriveled husk at a time
