Message on a screen before me

Caught a glimpse of the ending to our story

'I'm sorry I haven't called you recently'

It's not surprising

I'll just learn the lesson

Take some time to process the evidence

And analyze your apathy

You turned your back on affinity

Now it's turned to toxicity

You turned your back on affinity

Now it's turned to toxicity

Spare me your obsolete empathy

The voice of sympathy means nothing to me

Delete all obsolete memories

Shores of tranquility

My monastery

We played the game of imitation

I met your stare with blank expression

I count the years of isolation

Since you set my mind in motion

And to eliminate the silence

I calculate to cure the virus

A panacea for the poison

The solution is wrong

Well you turned your back

Turned your back on affinity

And now it's turning to

Turning to toxicity

Well you turned your back

Turned your back on affinity

And now it's turning to

Turning to toxicity

Spare me your obsolete empathy

The voice of sympathy means nothing to me

Delete obsolete memories

In a dying sun

I'll become affinity

Affinity

There's a strange feeling washing over me

As if I am drifting

On the waves of a boundless sea

All embracing

Some say that time and tide will wait for no man

I stop and hold a single grain of sand

To see a world in the palm of my hand

Strive to break free from the confines of my mind

Step through the doorway of perception

To lose all sense of past and future

Omnipresent endless knot

The architect of every thought

Through the prison walls made by your design

A chameleon hides behind orwellian eyes

Spare me your obsolete empathy

The voice of sympathy means nothing to me

Delete all obsolete memories

In a dying sun

When you're gone

I'll become affinity

Oh hear this vow

Tied together forever

We'll make this dream

Last forever and ever

Oh hear this vow

Tied together forever

We'll make this dream

Last forever and ever
