At the edge strike the heart 
to the core (I feel it). 
Merciless I let slip 
dogs of war (and I feel it) 

Slowly drown in this cell 
I have wrought (I feel it). 
Someone else 
forgive me 
I cannot. 

Stone by stone I build day by day, 
until such time as I must pay. 
One by one the thoughts fade away to nothing. 
I'm left with this;
the apex realized. 

Slowly drown in this cell 
I have wrought (I feel it).
