Cloak and Dagger

You dropped your guard and let it in
A purge by fire
As untamable as wind
Your misplaced trust
The combustion
Of a cleansing blaze

In these white halls of voices halted still
I'll have my rest and shed my skin
Another tarnished canvas to paint anew
Rinse and repeat

You will make me whole again
As I carefully peel off the mask
I'll rearrange you perfectly
And undress you of all human limitation
And force-fed degeneration
I'll see to it
Personally
That you'll leave them in awe

"As I once again allow myself to wander off into their midst
I look up to see their faces
And they look back to see mine
In their eyes
A reflection of how they think they see me
How they think they know they do
But like gazelles at the edge of the water
They will get to find out soon
That no matter how much they think they are in control
No matter how safe they feel
A shadow is never merely a shadow
And underneath
There is always something to fear"
