Disintegrate - Sylosis

If there is a common ground

Then we stand on separate land

We breathe the same foul air

But your head’s buried in the sand

We’ll all be forgotten

When what is left has rotten away

We’ll be long in our graves

Clutching onto our differences

How can you perceive

The world that you see

So erroneously?

Aren’t you growing weak

From the poison you speak?

Your words burn

But how much damage can be undone?

A burden unto yourself

Projecting your own inner hell

We disconnect from the common threads and await the final knell

The dust won’t settle

Till what’s left has rotten away

And by yourself you are bound

Another nail to hammer down

How can you perceive

The world that you see

So erroneously?

Aren’t you growing weak

From the poison you speak?

Your words burn

But how much intolerance can be unlearned?

Are you just afraid?

Or has your fear finally turned to rage?

Aimless violent fists at a world you can’t comprehend

How much damage can be undone?
