Observer

The comfort of my ferocious neglect
The solace of this room that harbors it
I have enclosed myself inside this crypt

At times
A strained ear and the quietest of words
To loosen the hold of disarray

Faint sounds
The distant peal
Of a paradigm shift
Proving too real

Coward
Observer
Traitor
A watchful observer

Coward
Observer
Traitor
A faithful observer

At times
A cracked door and the narrowest of rays
To feed a foul curiosity

The hurried steps
Of silhouettes
In passing
At loss
So near
I slowly shut the door

Coward
Observer
Traitor
A watchful observer

We gave a voice to a putrid mouth
And now it's all we ever hear

With the fever dream behind us
Can we begin again
Or is everything of value
Already petrified askew
