Heartfelt emotions,
Push me down the hill
In the pit of onyx fire
Burning with remorse and regret
Rotten carcasses lay livid here
Bold black taints their hearts
Faithless fumes rise in agony
Unlike the ones who pushed them
Not once did they tremble with fear,
At the thought of falling in deep
In the intricacies of a mindless maze
Not once did they question,
The hope within their hearts
Or their cruel fate

Unlike those loveless eyes
That look down with displeasure
And mocking mouths
That choke with smoke,
The carcasses are alive with
The pangs of unrequited love
And an ethereal aura of blood red

They are more than just
Rejected rag dolls
With broken hearts
They are more than just
Fools who took leaps of faith
To seek something real
Undaunted by the odds
They fiercely walked down
Those god forsaken roads
Of pain and anger

I see cowards
Cowards! All around
Hiding behind an emotionless mask
One and for all,
I tell them all
Their grisly game won't last
