"Ellie" lyrics - VEIL OF MAYA

VEIL OF MAYA
"Ellie"

These kind ones have adopted us
Accepted without question
We live to love
We love to live
A peaceful gift

These kind ones have adopted us
Accepted without question
We live to love
We love to live
A peaceful gift

We claim to be grateful
Though is it certain
Standing in pure darkness prying for the light
Pondering recent frames
Allowing access to the mistakes I may have made
Where are they?
Where are they now?

As I stare into a hole made up of dismay
They now face me
Gazing blankly into my eyes

All at once shattering
Leaving only the shards to be replaced
All at once shattering
Leaving only the shards to be replaced
I am putrid!
Lay aside the good that I have done
I am putrid!
Lay aside the good that I have done

BUT I AM ALIVE!

As I stare into a hole made up of dismay
They now face me
Gazing blankly into my eyes
As I stare into a hole made up of dismay
They now face me
Gazing blankly into my eyes

Only the shares to be replaced with guilt
I am putrid!
I am putrid!
I am putrid!
I am putrid!
Lay aside the good that I have done
All I'll be in the end is worthless
All I'll be in the end is worthless
