murder scene

Arch Enemy

Turning a blind eye
Won t make the world disappear
The second sight returns
So, too, does the pain and fear

I ll refuse to acknowledge
I ll refuse to accept
Reality force-feeding me anguish and regret

You, once so close to me
This once-so-sacred place is now a murder scene
Your name? Just a soliloquy, dead to me
Your presence forever will be exposure therapy

There stand strangers
Where the world used to be
Can t take change or
Are retinas still not letting me see?

I ll refuse to acknowledge
I ll refuse to accept
Reality force-feeding me anguish and regret

You, once so close to me
This once-so-sacred place is now a murder scene
Your name? Just a soliloquy, dead to me
Your presence forever will be exposure therapy

No we , no us
Two halves un-whole
I m your Sisyphus
You laugh every roll

And you will suffer
And you will drown
You are the victor?
How heavy s the crown?

You, once so close to me
This once-so-sacred place is now a murder scene
Your name? Just a soliloquy, dead to me
Your presence forever will be dead to me
