    Infinite Regress

    The night igniting, an empty scene
    Throwing hearts around like grenades
    A forever setting sun
    Burns it all away

    A mountain of jealousy, a river of envy
    Words precipitating, echoing in our wake
    Casting shadows of doubt beneath the
    Skies of Grey

    Hear the siren calling
    A red light unveils our innocence
    A blue light envelopes it all
    We are waiting for a silence
    to sit above the heavens
    before we watch as hell consume us all

    We say we're leaving, yet we remain
    Stuck in regression
    No progress to obtain
    A reprise of morose cliche
    A picture without the frame
    We say we're older, yet we remain the same

    If I could recall a voice
    I'd call upon an old friend
    If I could save you
    I'd walk away and pretend
    You had never changed
