Shadow Echo

I'm just a figment in the glass

My tears reflect the shattered past

I hold the death of a future in my hands

Knowing it can finally be over any second

-

Don't waste a precious thought

On what cannot be seen

None of my failures were caught

As I continued to fall free

I cannot be considered lost

Because no one paid heed

Suicidal soul / Tragedy foretold

Fate controlled / Heartless evermore

Silenced sold / Destiny gambled

Grown cold / Bound nevermore

I turned off the switch in my mind

So let the end have its way

This will be the last time I close my eyes

I'm relieved knowing everything will soon fade

I waved good bye to the light

But my last smile was feigned

-

I'm transparent like my sorrow

Downfall after downfall has made me hollow

I will shroud over the ignorance of tomorrow

For I am nothing but a shadow of an echo
