The Walls, and Their Teeth

The muddied voices, booming, and I shake
Antithesis of peace burns within the well worn ache
Within the maelstrom of failing
Decades of bending, forever bound to break

Treading greying water, dull escape
No faith in destiny but belief in this toxic fate
Oh callous lethargy
The indifference and the enormity

"I will never be able to explain the emptiness I feel
All I have left are anxieties and apologies
All I have left to bequeath
And I would give most anything for my sorrow to be buried with me"

"I would give anything
I will give everything"

"I tried to stand on broken limbs
But I was never the battling type
Echoes of heroes that shone a light
They haunt me, they haunt me in the deadest of night"
