"Ignorance Inversion" May 14th, 2008

In this inverted world, where angels rise from darkness and demons fall from light,
Where we sleep away the days and design ourselves at night,
Where the blind cannot hear, and the deaf have no sight,
Where all we thought was wrong becomes right,
There you and I lie, unchanged, holding the other tight.

Ignorant fools will fight around us, trying to destroy what isn't there,
Blind to our existence, there's not a life they will spare,
We'll be there to see the end, protected by the thoughts we share,
Guarding the bond between us, so real itself - it's rare,
Our gazes never breaking, neither one of us is scared.

This connection we share is without a name,
But our reluctance to release it is near the same,
The world tosses concepts around as if a child's game,
Destroyed "love" with no regret or shame,
Then scanning the earth for a face to blame.

But this sick and twisted world, with the venom of a snake,
Will soon find out that these stares will never break,
The connection of our hearts is something they can't take,
The firmness in our souls is the one thing they can't shake,
And we'll be the survivors when our lives are at stake.
