Overexposure

AFI · A Fire Inside [EP] [1998]

I have seen ten roses bleed, seen new petals fall, I have felt my soul tear.

I have felt nothing at all.

Watched what was vibrant fade as shadows fall.



I can see it's been done, all that was pure had been eradicated.

I can see it's all done.

Nothing can erase the damage done.



I have seen ten liars love, seen two lovers lie, seen youth, blinded, smiling.

I have seen deciet handed down from the highest height, below the lowly.



I can see it's been done, all that was pure had been eradicated.

I can see it's all done.

Nothing can erase the damage done.



I have seen beasts bathed in glory, tread across the angels as they crawl.

Take it all away.

Regress to nothing.

Can someone please take these images from my mind?
