Miasma Lyrics

Eroding like the phoenix

The rage inside me burns

I've taken my oasis and made it this desert

Vultures flying, gliding, biting, ruin what I have

A skeleton, hallowed out

The outline of a man

Emotions wander to the top

Like a submerged spring

Only to evaporate, steam in heat so blistering

For as long as I can remember

Feels like I've been throwing rocks on the fire

Lying and denying

Doing what I can

Just to keep this dim light shining

I guess it's true what they sayShipwreck A.D. - Miasma - http://motolyrics.com/shipwreck-ad/miasma-lyrics.html

Some coal will never be diamonds

The emptiness

True happiness, I was only given a taste

Until the poison chose to devastate

As far as the smile that grazed my face

Again, the mirage, your ugly hand erased

This arid land I wander offers me no cure

So through the barrenness I must endure

I'm now a mosaic of my broken portrait

And no one but myself to blame for it

Looking out over the overcast and bleak

I know not what I seek

But the coxcomb forms only to break

As I stagger into the red
