A constant reoccurrence awakens my suffering
My existence servitude to trauma
As a time lapsed world carries on
Reality became my nightmare
This dwelling despair suffocates my soul

I battle this doleful ever dawn behind masquerade
These limbs are pulled by threads from times past
Like a puppet, my actions play out my suffering
These bleak eyes witness to terror
Crimson tears will stain these cheeks
My tragedy engraved in my skin

Oh to embrace a new day, the suns warmth
I am cold and prisoner to my filthy regrets
It is said that time heals all wounds
Time had only fed this wound
The rusty rapier succumbs to my wrath
"Bleed me for I am poisoned"
