Serrated pavement; mentality changes
for preserve of life.
Lifeless acceptance of fear inside...
still, I surmise:
you wish for a dim-eyes demise of your mind.
traces of a life I could have had...
if servitude didn't pave the world.
Weary beyond identity, just walking bleeding meat.
Weary beyond identity...
Slowly I doubt
What they talk about
Am I just the mist on the mountain?
Clouds sewed shut with long intestines.
Doing right with terrifying intentions.
...So I sit back, and I watch, as servitude paves the world...
...So I sit back, as I watch it burn.
Weary beyond identity...
Weary beyond identity...

I'm giving up...
I'm tired, I'm over.
I'm letting go of my balance.
Drag your feet across the sand...
there is no end.
Kill yourself, maybe then you'll rest.
I'm giving up...
I'm tired, I'm over.
I'm letting go of my balance.
I leave my trust in the universe...
because this life is so rehersed
Look toward the shaded chasm.
Your weight shifts, your eyes widen.
Look toward the shaded cesspit.
No one will morn this shallow despot.
Shadow swallowed with slow dissension.
I make my peace with my extinction.
No embrace but a cold lonesome.
With contact, the shadow is painted with my blood.
I'm giving up...
I'm tired, I'm over.
I'm letting go of my balance.
Now consumed by the throat of the world,
I accept my fate as a fateless one.
My skin cant thicken because I'm a corpse's son.
Self inflicted pain took care of that one.

They're beating me to the beat of my heart not beating.
I'm receding to my shell; the hell I've built for myself.
A dim-eyes demise ill relish.
I'm unraveling through severed selvage.
Please explain to me how is destroying everything I love is selfish?
I have no ambitions,
The only decisions that I make are incisions to rake the drain I'm tracing.
Now I'm facing a train,
Now I'm drifting from my lane,
Now i'm jumping off the bridge to join the rain...
Now I'm facing the pain with painkillers.
I'm not saying i'm sane, I'm saying I'm no longer afraid to lay with those who lay decayed...
Another droplet dancing down the drain.
...
Breathe in,
Now let your breath leave you...
As you leave behind what has not yet left you.
Forget the places you've been, and the faces you take comfort in.
Breathe in...
now stop breathing.

We tumultuous few revel in our genetic curses.
No harm dealt nor met, yet again, we turn on one another by instinct;
extinct.
Selfish and unlasting instincts.
Now and again our ravings fall flat, slain by the very air which we breathe.
Thou fiendish rage, trace the circle of instinct;
extinct.
Selfish and unlasting instincts.
An utterance now utterly destroyed,
stripped of it's meaning through crazed repetition.
Through selfish and unlasting instincts,
we shall become extinct.
...
This too shall pass... and come back...
because pain is temporary,
but trauma will always linger.

Mosses and creeping processes deface..
...Insidious time sickness...
We mal-remain un-graced.
We mal-remain-
just as our remains,
we remain un-graced in pallid stains.
Mosses and creeping processes deface..
...Insidious time sickness...
A timeless message will be forgotten,
because of the time which it never escaped.

The mute motionless rainfall
washes away...
gray, silent footfalls.
Approach the ones effaced.
Tar dripping storm clouds strafe
the graveyards of silent footfalls
and the long since erased.
