​iodbc - The Black Box
APATHY
Do you know that this is me
A shattered soul of what I used to be?
Take what you know, throw it away
Because this mind is here to stay
Do you know that I am me
Destroyed the human I could be?
Take all the things you used to know
Let tears that built up overflow

Let's rip up the polaroid and take the worries of the past
Forget our thought and dialogue, you know it wasn't built to last
My broken heart had fin'lly cracked from all the cruel abuse I bore
I'd think to leave it all behind 'cause I ain't what I was before

Face your fear, what you endear is very clear to not exist
And realize my crystal eyes fly in disguise of what you missed
So domineer and don't revere when I am here, I won't resist
My anguished cries will break my ties, take to the skies, the sun I kissed and burned away

Like the Icarus, I flew and went my way
To a new hope left to be a fleeting dream
Through the maelstrom I had led myself astray
To the future world with all the pain I scream

Face your fear, what you endear is very clear to not exist
And realize my crystal eyes fly in disguise of what you missed
If love was true, then what are you? Or are you, too, a catalyst
Out of the blue, far overdue, I will renew, what I dismissed and burn away
See the ruins of my hate and apathy
If I cared enough, I'd save this world again
But my boiling heart succumbs to atrophy
When the ember dies, who will you call a friend?

There's nothing left for you to take
This choice is yours alone to make
Will you repair, or will you break
Will you amend for your mistakes?
Or will you walk away and show
This is the life you want to know?
Turn tail and run, from audio
Just leave me now to die, and go
