sever the ties

Your failure to compromise has drained that weary spirit
Laudable intentions of self-sacrifice turned sour once more
Above my head is a glowing neon halo
Its blinding light can only appease someone's vapid resentment for so long
The weight on my weakened shoulders increases as you progressively regain your sight
A disposable smile discreetly veils my contempt for its significant inaccuracy
Words have never been so painful
I beg on my knees to gain your acceptance

Your failure to compromise has drained that weary spirit
Laudable intentions of self-sacrifice turned sour once more
Above my head was a glowing neon halo
Its blinding light faded
I should know better
The day will come when the bonds that unite us will be broken
Only then will you know how much I resented your company

That day will come
