about

Selfishness leads to self-destruction

lyrics

Bearing edges bent, the gables growing split,
A mirror in the hall its all you have
Garden full of thorns, barren fields before,
Gathering storm, its all we have, its all we have.

This will not end well you know
Hedges made of dead men and smoke
Actions do not match your words
Billows for a slower burn
Turning to the whims of youth
You've twisted up your point of view
You came in through the walls and floors,
And this house can stand no more

You're not so wild as overgrown

A graven image of yourself, how could you care for someone else
A graven image built so well, how could you care for someone else. (a mirror of

Your love is lost, in the tangles that selfishness wrought
You gave it up, it wasn't worth the thought

Waiting for the blind to recognize you
You let them lose their way
Keeping to yourself all of your heartbeat
Their bodies met decay.

Skies rain down on your house
As fire comes up from the ground
Vanity brought you down
No one sees you now.
