Mini-metropolis lays in ruin
The light which once brought
Hope has been cast elsewhere
The air that brought life;
Strangled from its lungs
Smoke still pours from vents
Windows sparkle in the sun
But in these eyes, I see a shell
Waiting for the world
To tear it down
Maybe it's just me
'Cause I can never see
The light through these windows
Glass stained, opaque
With self-loathing and
A depreciated value
Of what I'm worth
It's hard to feel warmth
When the wind is constantly
Blowing down your back
And the frigid breath of deceit
Raises the hair on your neck
But I gotta find a way
Before I can't get away
Gotta find the words to say
I've fallen on better days
