|
The helpless wander in vain |
|
To forget all before them |
|
This inner sanction |
|
A blinding vision |
|
Through neglect we falter |
|
All are subservient |
|
To burn out the absolute |
|
Shadow our nature |
|
Crawl into the darkest of holes |
|
With reason forbidden we fade |
|
And our shattered remains will lay to waste |
|
This is our weakness, our failing |
|
Suffer at the hands of those we feed |
|
With wounds to show for nothing |
|
Breathe the ashes of our burning past |
|
To swallow whole, the denial |
|
These self-conceived walls close in upon us |
|
And we shall never see the light of day |
