nugatory hope - taken away lyrics

intro:
taken away…

v1:
this is the sordid mess i did not want to create
this is destruction, the ultimate burden of fate
this is the true realization that i am too late
encompassed by self+loathing, i gave my power to hate
everything i’ve ever known was taken away
the ravage of caustic revulsion left everything scarred
pleas left unanswered with promises broken and marred
all that i had was this life that i saw as subpar
now all that i want is to cherish it as it departs

chorus:
gaze in my eyes as my vision fades to black
i strayed from the light
strangled by the dark within
it’s too late to say goodbye
if only you could take me back
i face my demise as all is taken away

v2:
i wanted to close my eyes and turn my back on it all
i found brief respite from my failures when i built a wall
the hurt that encircled me dug as deep as oceans churn
now it consumes you and paints your face as questions burn
and everything you’ve ever known is taken away
i wish i could change
i wish i could heal
i wish i could hold you, and say how i feel
it hurts so much more forever apart
i’m so sorry i left you and shattered your heart

bridge:
timeless the suffering i scathed on your soul
forgiveness, from which i will never be full
i beseech of you this as i wither away:
triumph over pain just by seeing one more day
when i gave my blood
i was returned the curse of desertion and dearth
endlessly hollow
forsaken by so many a duplicitous fellowship
now i watch with stone+cold regret
as grief seethes and pieces of you evanesce
and i curse all i’ve been in the face of the end
‘cause if i lived, at least i’d be broken with you!
