Transcending Mortality - The Mirrors Eye

He feeds the vein to cleanse his mind,
Wash away the pain that burns inside.
Erase the memories aching, within,
The only way to free his soul from sin.

Longing in dreams of a warm embrace,
A hand to guide him through this cold dark place.
But our wounds we can't hide from the mirror's eye,
Our demons from the past we can't disguise.

Innocence shined from eyes so bright,
Drawing the shades she dims the light.
Laying them down too numb to feel,
Innocence too young to steal.

She feeds the vein to cleanse her mind,
Shelter from the rain she'll never find.
The needles grip that held so tight,
As they fed the devil's lust night after night.

Down she lies, there are no tears to cry,
I stood and watched her die now I'm on my own.
Here she lies, darkness fills my skies,
Now I walk these roads alone.

Shots pierce the dead of night, I don't blink an eye.
Streetlights flicker and fade away.
Her voice calls on the breeze, her face haunts my dreams,
Her pain forever bound to me.

Each night I feel her presence,
Whispers in the depths of my dreams.
And I've felt their touch on my face,
Our love is an empty illusion.

Close your eyes, let blood and tears run like rain.
Cleanse your mind, let all your fears drown in pain.

Down we lie, there were no tears to cry,
Two tortured souls entwined til the end of time.
Here we lie, the darkness in our skies,
We walk these roads alone.
