A Study In Dystopia

Behold, the sky is on fire,

Flames cut and burn my skin,

The clouds in the heavens

Can’t glorify my sins

Tonight I’ll sing my dreams to sleep,

While signs of woe make angels weep,

The only certain thing is we are bound to fail,

It cuts so deep the skin turns pale

‘Lo, the creatures of fortune,

Mock the weak and the brave,

And glare in self-satisfaction

Until there’s no one left to save

Tonight I’ll sing my dreams to sleep,

While signs of woe make angels weep,

The only certain thing is we are bound to fail,

It cuts so deep the skin turns pale

I thought I heard your voice, and as the sky descends…

Tonight we’ll face our shameful pasts,

Those painful memories fade like fallen snow

Tonight I’ll sing my dreams to sleep,

While signs of woe make angels weep,

The only certain thing is I’ll die before I fail,

Cauterize my wounds and face this hurricane.
