The Eyes of a Corrupted Man Lyrics by The Perilous Mind

The Cycle of Darkness

2022

Innocent, unwilling flesh falling into his glare
Guilty obsession, curious compulsion for reasons he’s not aware
A tragic soul rejected by all - acceptance will never pervade
Deep inside, the sorrow resides
Cold and empty - the eyes of a corrupted man
Introduced as an ordinary thing at a crucial point in time
Forever imprinted, the seed had taken root and so began the inner fight
Innocence taken, his future obscured
Growing self-hatred and there was no cure
Infected
Was there a cross-wiring or was it as simple as lust
No one is safe from the path of his eye as they dart around the room
Locking onto everything he sees
Far beyond his own control he makes his presence known
And the spectacle created only draws the mocking eyes
Without even knowing I was digging my own grave
Trusting far too many with a secret no one could keep
My identity now forced upon me, nowhere I can hide
The decision I must make - should I own it or deny
Over my head, out of my hands, it was far too late
The only option I have left: a full embrace
Empty
Eyes - There was never a chance
Of - No way he could prevent
A - The bigger plan
Cold
Corrupted man - Innocence never was
Eyes - His definition of love
So - A broken intimacy
Empty
Eyes
All questions answered, the accusations are in place
What’s done is done, I know my words can’t be erased
Eyes - There was never a chance
Of - No way he could prevent
A - The bigger plan
Cold
Corrupted man - Innocence never was
Eyes - His definition of love
So - A broken intimacy
Empty
Eyes - Now we have reached
Of - The story’s end
A - Where the cycle began
Cold
Corrupted man - Innocence never was
Eyes - His definition of love
So - A broken intimacy
Empty
Eyes
Never will I understand
I’ll never accept who I am
Why did it have to be me
What does it all even mean
My life is dictated by this
Shadow I cannot dismiss
Wonder what life could have been
Without the affliction at hand
Riding out a sick obsession
Curiosity turns to passion
Hidden behind the desperation
A longing for human connection
I will never see the true light of day
Forever trapped in the shadow of the darkest side of me
Empty
Eyes - There was never a chance
Of - No way he could prevent
A - The bigger plan
Cold
Corrupted man - Innocence never was
Eyes - His definition of love
So - A broken intimacy
Empty
Eyes
