Despised Icon - Oval Shaped Incisions lyrics
[Despised Icon - Oval Shaped Incisions lyrics]
Estranged
The bliss of a young man
Smoothly slivered in an instant, obscured
Memories puncture through an opaque blindfold
Eyelids carved swiftly with
Oval-shaped incisions
A breach in one self's fortitude reveals
A radiant smile struggling to resurface
Nostalgia plays its snivelling violin
I bleed pristine tears
Recollections of the son I once was
Stabbed my past with oxidized scissors and
Turned away come on!
Awake
To salvage what is left before it dies away
An oath destined to be forgotten
Strong words are nothing more
Than heartfelt clichés
The times have changed and so have I
Childhood dreams reduced to pale aspirations
Familiar faces have shed their skin
Spawning a newfound identity
A never ending pursuit of distinctiveness
As blurred strenuous bonds in it's path
Awake
To salvage what is left before it dies away
An oath destined to be forgotten
Strong words are nothing more
Than heartfelt clichés
The bliss of a young man
Smoothly slivered in an instant, obscured
Memories puncture through an opaque blindfold
Eyelids carved swiftly with
Oval-shaped incisions
A breach in one self's fortitude reveals
A radiant smile struggling to resurface
Nostalgia plays its snivelling violin
I bleed pristine tears
Recollections of the son I once was
Stabbed my past with oxidized scissors and
Turned away come on!
Awake
To salvage what is left before it dies away
An oath destined to be forgotten
Strong words are nothing more
Than heartfelt clichés
The times have changed and so have I
Childhood dreams reduced to pale aspirations
Familiar faces have shed their skin
Spawning a newfound identity
A never ending pursuit of distinctiveness
As blurred strenuous bonds in it's path
Awake
To salvage what is left before it dies away
An oath destined to be forgotten
Strong words are nothing more
Than heartfelt clichés
