No Hero
I awake to a foreboding silence
Crystal vision, an uneasy calmness
There is no air, a quiet peace
A truer perception of reality
There within the shadow
A veiled figure: Judgement
My screams fall silent
Pitiful gasps in the face of death
"You know me" I plead
Hollow words to evade the reckoning
My cowardice pitilessly met by the demon of my design
And alas I realize in time I'll be no hero
Anguish for a life left unlived
A result of tainted entropy
I am as Ouroboros
As an imploding black hole
Do you hear the music of the dirt?
It's been calling me for some time
Paralyzed
Forever dying
Indifferent
Forever dying
Buried and decomposing
No epitaph, no story
A hollow husk
As I arise through the firmament the vision now subsides
But it echoes commandments by which I must abide
The thundering drum in my chest beats songs
Of a time where the rain could pass
And so too through the muddy soil would peak emerald blades at last
Forgive me, as I've painted this affront to God
Forgive me for making misery my art
Crystal vision, an uneasy calmness
There is no air, a quiet peace
A truer perception of reality
There within the shadow
A veiled figure: Judgement
My screams fall silent
Pitiful gasps in the face of death
"You know me" I plead
Hollow words to evade the reckoning
My cowardice pitilessly met by the demon of my design
And alas I realize in time I'll be no hero
Anguish for a life left unlived
A result of tainted entropy
I am as Ouroboros
As an imploding black hole
Do you hear the music of the dirt?
It's been calling me for some time
Paralyzed
Forever dying
Indifferent
Forever dying
Buried and decomposing
No epitaph, no story
A hollow husk
As I arise through the firmament the vision now subsides
But it echoes commandments by which I must abide
The thundering drum in my chest beats songs
Of a time where the rain could pass
And so too through the muddy soil would peak emerald blades at last
Forgive me, as I've painted this affront to God
Forgive me for making misery my art
