Dark Charade-Rishloo

I've been dredgin' the lake of my soul for a place I've never been Scattering the last of my thoughts to capture a whim Filled my lungs to limit Found why we stay in denial On this unclimbed stairway Watching life go by I'll make it easier on those of us who don't know that I am still here Imagining dialtone schemes When I lost myself in the dark charade... But I promise: my performance was flawless I lost myself in the dark charade And I swear I'm far more crazy than the rumors make me out to be Crazy... Crazier than me... All we are is all we are Featureless with inside scars We sink through walls and float right through it all If all we are is what they say We'll become them along the way Who were we before we were ashamed? Don't tell them the cause between fragments of all of us Still the rain to rhyme the reason Takes some time to find the one To find the soul to make me god enough That I could save us all And do you love me now that I can save us all? Do you love me now that I can save us all? Do you love me now? If you'll just stand over here we'll find a place where you can waste away Sorry it's not what you sought, but superstition is all we brought today I'll return you to the Wind for circumstantial assurances, love Sold the sea to buy the ship... I think I may have f**ked up things again Found a way to make your soul alive, to make you slide... So who will be the first in line? This was all an unfortunate mistake Do you recall a little bit of innocence, a time when we could still forgive and forget? I remember plastic pills and crystal balls within syringes filled, filling up with Algorithms, circuitry - this fluid frame has shown me things I fear, I know, I believe So who will be the first in line? They're not there, they're not there Don't look at them... Don't look: stare with your menacing cinder eyes At the least of us who've given their lives Where the sanguine ought to be we pale in the light we bend Oh, enough said. Where's the love, you liar?
