Hope wore the mask of a cherub And though its eyes were censored, wings dismantled Everyone seemed to smile with purpose and passion Transmit to me the strength to see In waveforms that remain undiscovered Guide me to the brink Save me from the swarm's arms, deny the locust Compel the signal to react Tonight its song is tragic Hollow and weak Falling down Bound by the deepest mistakes Once frail and lost Now I'm found For the transmission's sake Clenched fists the meek will inherit Without a dime to savor, crumb to salvage All souls may die alone, with no one to cherish Forget the truth of spoiled youth The transmission shines even stronger Echoing of ghosts Spilling your ambitions, leaving you numb Receive the message still intact Encode your soul and send it back Hollow and weak Falling down Bound by the deepest mistakes Once frail and lost Now I'm found for the transmission's sake
