I watched the world through a sea of lies
I lost my edge
I lost my will to go on
I spent my days in a quilted tomb
I watched the sun come and go
Through eyelids sealed shut
Red burning through my skin
Words tumbled from my lips
They made no sense even to me
But they were not made to deceive
When I was living
My words burned through others
Corosive
I sailed along the sea of lies
I brought buckets of my own to contribute
My tongue was dusty by the end
Gritty and grainy
Sifting away like sand through my fingers
Dissolving in a sea of lies
I have no words left to say
I have no faith
On a bed lost in a sea of lies
I watch my life go by
