The Reaper

Silence breaks The floor will groan Under my weight And I will ache We are the same I'm flickering An open flame It's amber gaze Like a child I'll hold my breath And count the time You'll ask me why And I'll Reply It ends the same Each time I try A starlit night I'll decide what's not my fault And I am no clean judge at all But when we're made to state our growth I'll never be the one who choked (But there you go) Thoughts arise My lack of trust In restless eyes I'm not surprised By my design I'd drink the scorn You'd call it wine And I'd resign Acid truth Your tongue will burn With names you've chewed The smoke consumed Won't be of use You'll end a priest Of empty pews A faithless tomb Tempting fate and chasing ages Feeding what your lungs can take Violet top lip, freezing witness Shoot to kill but not to aim (Your sound is just a noise-filled space)
