Deception

She cries, children often do
When they're cold, and hungry too
Come closer, look deeply in her eyes
So delicate, quite unlike her smile

Life clinging backwards
In the fall of dread confusion
Still this silence gnaws upon your fingertips
All-yielding prayer, for instant isolation
Far more sinister than the price of doubt

Yet you remain
Still you remain

And she says
Pray for daylight
Pray for morning
Pray for an end to our deception

Life clinging backwards
In the fall of dread confusion
Still this silence gnaws upon your fingertips
All-yielding prayer, for instant isolation
Far more sinister than the price of doubt

Yet you remain
Still you remain

And she says
Pray for daylight
Pray for morning
Pray for an end to our deception
