Translation
Bilingual
I, a captive of autonomy, a proxy for ire and apathy
Will be erased, to preclude the recounting of my history
I am neither undeserving of nor immune to
This expiration date, this "proper ending" fate
ย
Suddenly, a knock, the wolves approach with care
With their claws prepared, I grow apprehensive
They saunter inside with hungry eyes
The fear, a less than human sight
This is my design. I cannot repair them
With fangs to my throat, I hold my breath
The clock is ever adamant
As the seconds pass, I await my sentence
The end of the Architect
ย
In the harbor, the stone subsides to dust
The severed threads unwind, the ruins turn to rust
The waves recede in kind beneath a grieving sun
The shifting sands divine uncertainty to come in time
The color runs from iridescent sleep
To paint the Earth in kerosene memories
Promises of love and paper-thin innocence
Invite the Sun to swallow them
The Candle burns to guide the wandering
A sacrifice could never mend anything
A passive act of insincerity
Foreshadowing a proper end to everything
ย
Now and then, amidst the many eyes I see
It is hard to feel that I deserve to be there
A portrait amongst those little frames
Afraid that I'm not good enough
It is hard to fall when the world is watching
They feast on defeat as wolves will do
ย
The color runs from iridescent sleep
To paint the Earth in kerosene memories
Promises of love and paper-thin innocence
Invite the Sun to swallow them
The Candle burns to guide the wandering
A sacrifice could never mend anything
A passive act of insincerity
Foreshadowing a proper end to everything
ย
You were the constant in question
You were the shadow of doubt
I saw the lie in your smile
Pleading for someone to save you now
You were the constant, the anchor
You were the shadow of her
I saw her life in your smile
This is the path she would choose
You were the constant in question
You were the shadow of doubt
I saw the lie in your smile
Pleading for someone to save you now
ย
The color runs from iridescent sleep
To paint the Earth in kerosene memories
Promises of love and paper-thin innocence
Invite the Sun to swallow them
The Candle burns to guide the wandering
A sacrifice could never mend anything
A passive act of insincerity
Foreshadowing a proper end to everything
