Through the Looking Glass
Innocence of a child...child of pure, unclouded brow. Seeking answers...reciting wonder...apprehension declines from this looking glass house. Projected secrets...so familiar...calling me...behold the ecstacy. Riddled perception...riddled perception...as their game unfolds from my looking glass house. Majestic blade severs time. Premonition transpires, Behold...the wonder, Soul torn...asunder. Majestic blade, sanctioned sign. Regressive progression obliged. Behold...the wonder. Soul torn...asunder. Conform and mimic me. Obey and mimic me. Affirm and mimic me. Consent and mimic me. Accept and mimic me. Submit and mimic me. Comply and mimic me. Do my eyes refle ct the things I must protect...and will my soul neglect the strength I must project?

It feeds off fear, our souls it's prey. Black eyes burn through the path it takes. Soft pulse...soft gaze...am I too late? Project...protect...absorb...create. Lost within my own identity. Shadows converge shedding light beyond eternity. Shed that grin from your featureless face. This tongue now speaks your language. And what I now taste is bitter...lifeless blood. Tempting demise. Hollow in it's guise. It's appearance lies. Vindication arise. Ludic luster, transcend the flame. Consume, exile, sever the hate. Acrid blood flow exudes coarse veins. Confront...surpass...absorb...create.

I'm not just ornamentation. As each step brings me back to start, can I overtake my past tense future? Confront...faces of stone. Deceived...stories untold. Withdrawn...ash searing cold. Arise...ascension alone. Steal rails abscond my travels. Conversations with the dead prevail. Exoskeleton, hollow inside, the lost souls wishing me well. If I fall will their armor protect me? If I fall will the hollow survive? Drifting further...Labored eyesight...Silver laughter..Envied twilight. The scepter shatters, feel the child inside me. Power struggle through that same child's eyes. Divided thoughts cloud innocent minds. Confront...faces of stone. Deceived...stories untold. Withdrawn...ash searing cold. Arise...ascension alone. I'm not just ornamentation. As each step brings me back to start, can I overtake my past tense future? Drifting further...Labored eyesight...Silver laughter..Envied twilight. You cannot chase your future from the past.

Torn from inside as my eyes absorb the false state of my life...passes by transcended through a tearful eye. Now my eyes...now my eyes...burn with the acid truth of a suicide. Hear my laughter cry. I ask you why. I ask why. Floating through this lake of tears, will I not drown? Clicking steel, abrasive skin, it all surrounds. Floating through this lake of tears, will I not drown? Calloused soul, calloused flesh it all surrounds.
Pedant...Godhead...affix...madness. Immune me from all I see. Secure me in all I see. Pedant...Godhead...affix...madness. Immune me from all I see. Secure me in all I see. Cleave through numb proof. Consume vile truth. You immune me from all I see. You secure me in all I see. Sedate my ego. Impune my virtue.

Twisting path and rolling hills, imprisoned by thy selfish will, this wonderment suffocates me. Twisting path and rolling hills, I doubt virtues you instill, this wonderment suffocates me. Twisting path and rolling hills, secrets told while truths lie still, this wonderment suffocates me. Through my eyes, I have seen majestic ends justify poverished means. You exemplify preconceived connotations, I symbolize eminent transformation. Contrive your obscure repetition. Conceive my ascension from self ambition. Twisting path and rolling hills, impossive petulance it kills, this wonderment suffocates me. Twisting path and rolling hills, your vassal shell cannot fulfill, this wonderment liberates me. The time has come now child, there is no turning back. Succeed to yourself, transcend reflections mirrored in those eyes of glass. Rise!

Progressing away, beneath a red sky. Twilight of day, month of July. Now one of three, thy innocent crown. Anxious in sight, perception, and sound. Timeline...fading. Lifeline...fading. Still she haunts me, still she taunts me. Caught inside...me. Children yet, tale to hear. Eager eye, willing ear. Loving nestle near. In a wonderland they lie. Dreaming as days go by. Dreaming as summer dies. Ever drift down the stream. Lingering in the golden gleam. Innocent child, seen in others eyes. Scepter in hand, she reigns phantomwise. Savior of three, capture the gleam. Essence eternal, live life through a dream. Life...what is it...but a dream...
