Nexus - STARDUST
Buried under an ocean of tears you made me cry
Its serenity has belied my state of mind
I was ingenuous to all of your fiendish crimes
You were the nexus to my eventual downfall
You stepped over the line meant to keep me in place
All my following desolation chose you as it's lead
Caught up to your aching feet and pulled you underneath
I was crestfallen at the sight
Of my headstone facing away from the fading light
A gathered crowd sanguine in all their Sunday best
The news reads I've fallen from grace because I just don't know how to let go, now I'm dead
You were the nexus to my eventual downfall
You stepped over the line meant to keep me in place
All my following desolation chose you as it's lead
Caught up to your aching feet and pulled you underneath
Oh heaven I'm begging you to pull me back
I don't really want another chance
When I reach the golden gates will you remember who I am?
Will you trust that I haven't changed and I'm still only an unlucky hand
Oh heaven I haven't crossed any lines you set for me
I'm too much of a coward, but I'd never be too naïve
Caught up in a pyramid scheme, I'm asking you to set me free
I believed in a power so powerful, it tricked me so gracefully
You were the nexus to my eventual downfall
You stepped over the line meant to keep me in place
All my following desolation chose you as it's lead
Caught up to your aching feet and pulled you underneath
