These wings are singed and ripped about

this mind is weak and ceases to shout

this voice is hoarse and sings no more

these fairy tales gone and reality reborn

this halo cracked and thrown away

this day has died and there’s nothing to say

this time has come and gone again

this fate is as it’s always been

this is all the same no matter what

these thoughts and lies refuse to trust

these circumstances change times three

this is not the way it’s supposed to be

this is how it used to seem

these are circumstances seen before

these are truths and lies the mind can’t hide

this is the what tomorrow brings

these are the moments and madness

this is what’s contained within

this is fate and faith held so close

this is the way the story goes

this is final

this end is near

this is the glimmer of held back tears.
