Chrome

A million faces, each a million lies
For each and all a chrome disguise
Prompts for action force reaction
Embody promise in a sheen so pure.

Hurt, the measure of blind ambition
The testament to your singular disease
Against all wisdom you heed no warning
Your desires giving you away.

If I could change your mind
I wouldn't save you from the path you wander
In desperation dreams
Any soul can set you free.

And I still hear you scream
In every breath, in every single motion
Burning innocence
The fire to set you free.

Your actions turn conquest to dust
In portents of fate you foolishly place trust
Sense fear in your broken breathing
Resort to shadows till your body expires.

All creation has the promise of heaven
And still you travel the road to hell
I'm saying nothing for the good of myself
But I'm still talking and you're not listening.

If I could change your mind
I wouldn't save you from the path you wander
In desperation dreams
Any soul can set you free.

And I still hear you scream
In every breath, in every single motion
Burning innocence
The fire to set you free.

As night descends upon the city
The streets are cold, the lights go by
And in the stories of the people
A million faces, a million lies

They'll never say they feel what you feel
That they can see the world you see
And in their faces, their expressions
A million faces, a million lies
