I Am Mine to Break

Leaving amidst this vision of ruins Fading through all cravings A promise to heal for my sake A promise which is mine to break These walls still breathe, these hands still feel There is nothing that one can pray These walls still breathe, these hands still feel All voices, shattered, have no aim Amidst the faceless shards of life A disastered mirror, awaited strife One fades like the hopes cradled One fades like the love that failed I am mine to break Release me In this mirror I see nothing else but me And though I tried to make it all impersonal I failed again Even if breath is drawn, all strength has gone Simple words, stuttering A man has no voice A man has no eyes A man just exists yet do not live And these shards I've created out from heart Now laid on this floor They all seem like a part of the rotten womb Which I call home Leaving all the ruins Everything fading A promise that failed A life that failed I am mine to break
