The Void - System Syn

Understand I have no faith

But I pray that you won’t find me

For honesty, I’m drifting out

Floating just above the ground

And nothing that I reach for is tied down

So off they go

A blur, and in a memory

As the landscape succumbs

To the curvature of the earth

A blur, and in a memory

While we pretend

That our lives have worth

Understand I have no purpose

But I will tell myself anything

To prolong my suffering

Oh, you know it by another name, I’m sure

Just as your role in life will always be secure

Well there you go, well there you go

A blur, and in a memory

This worthless hope

Is holding on my tongue

A blur, and in a memory

Are words just air

Escaping from our lungs

Understand I have no soul

The concept is a manmade joke

But it’s been told longer than I’ve been alive

And now the words come without thought

Just patterns, sounds that we were taught

So let them fade, like shadows in the night

With each new day

I will fade a little more

To a blur, and in a memory

And soon you won’t remember

Who that prayer was for

A blur, and in a memory

And in a memory
