Betrayed by innocence
Deceived by delusions
Plagiarized promises
Pale into empty hopes

Ivory towers bow down
In reference to daylight
As dreamers awaken
In sleepers somber shade

Ocean waves shift leaving
only memories
Final traces of hope
are swallowed in the deep

Despair sends a certain calm
A vague sense of relief
Released from all our longings
Silently we'll sleep

Hope leads to quiet desperation
When reality obscures the dream
Makes the mind a grave of memories
That wander like the lonely breeze
Whose whispers echo through ruins rust
of towers torn and dreams turned to dust
