Shepherds Fold by Aletheian Lyrics

Barren isolation amongst the closest of friends, longing for contentment and peace
Beaten and confined by an established code of counterintuitive reason and worth
Settling to mimic the distorted reflections of shadow's cast
Autonomous allegiance to that which passes away, obscuring the infallibility of the unseen
Bitter unrest tears a hole in the whole of a man
Gut wrenching fear paralyzing the will and the mind, staying the purveyance of grace
Catatonic disposition, well dressed with a veil of passive obedience to acceptance
Traversing the well-beaten path with a contrived countenance of success

Face first in the corner of an empty room
Confidence is found in hiding, although vulnerable and in plain view
Self-protective deception is only detrimental
Shutting eyes to the light brings darkness only to the inside
