A Blessing in Tragedy

A blessing in tragedy Burning what's left in effigy Wreckage, when there's nothing left Wreckage, the birthright of regret A place where truth can hide A place where fallen egos can survive A place where fear rusts through pride A place where heroes go to die Self delusion, self destruction Falling so short of faith An empty shell A carcass left of greed An empty shell In the shade grows another weed And you wear the scars well Merciless liar How many times till your shadow haunts you too? Wreckage, when there's nothing left Wreckage, the birthright of regret A place where truth can hide A place where fallen egos can survive A place where fear rusts through pride A place where heroes go to die An empty shell A carcass left of greed An empty shell In the shade grows another weed
