Marred
Mechanical is this institute
These beautiful opportunities,
Little lamb
They want to stew your insides
Rebel at heart you're a paladin,
Crusted in black and torn satin
Molded to fit their unkept cages
Tired as your soul rages
You will become unfathomable:
A discordant souvenir of loves loss,
Of life's spare.
Our eyes swirl, marred with weakness.

A discordant souvenir of loves loss,
Of life's spare.

I came through a lot of childhood trauma so I hear you from that experience. There's a kind of dichotomy in this life, tenderness amidst the brutality.
