The serpent twisting through it
Pulsating Light
The tendrils digging roots
And spreading blight
Maligned with discontent
And turning pale
The fever seeps right through it
Personal blackmail
Shadow grows deep inside
Blocking out all of the
Nice bright warm light
Pressures on, bulging
Faces are exploding
With bright red hot energy
And it is so hard to remember a time
When it was not like this
The thoughtstream is so narrow
Tunnel minded angst
Reputation is so hollow
Neurons shooting blanks
Prioritize the hunger
And skirt like a rat
To leave might lead to blunder
You know I can't do that
It all fades away
There is nothing that's left here
No friendly line to call
Consume, then again
Can't wait another second
Never even saw the fall
And I know that life can be better than this
And I know that life can be better than this
And I know that life can be better than this
And I know that I can be better than this
