Timeless Tale

You are tragedy incarnate.
You're the whisper to the sky
That tore the world asunder
And you didn't need to try

Absolute opacity
at maximum capacity
Fill your mind up endlessly
With all the never meant to be

Wretched be this parasitic tag along you hide.
That filth you feed is evil, and it's time it fucking died.
Betrothed be to misery, In confidant confide.
Hells nowhere you chose to be, It's always there inside.

Welcome. I find you're here again.
Funny how I catch you creeping back in now and then.
Used to be you'd stay as long as I cared not to care.
Now that I look back I left a lot of myself there.

The weight of all this emptiness, alliviates the (w)hole.
Now the mind is paralysed, it must destroy the soul.
Siphoning your entity to nurture the abyss.
Taking away everything to only give you this.

Seas are awfully rough, I hope the maelstrom abides.
The swift and gentle bliss, of her chaotic tides.
She will sooner drown me than she shift a single drop.
But the journey isn't over cause the journey doesn't stop.

Careful! I'm only here to help.
I saw that you were wounded, thought I'd nurse you back to health.
You're not captured.
Though it seems I've been myself.

Have some things that you might need.
Guess just time if nothing else.
Perhaps you'll share some with me?
We'll keep it for ourselves.

You are mercy here incarnate.
You're the whisper at our side.
That lulled the world to slumber.
So you didn't need to hide.
