The Vengeance

Here come the walls
Closing again
Upon the floor of this ocean of lost experience
Darkness returned
At these new depths
Just mist atop the mountains of those who, through me, are dead
And now, how each feature fades
Beneath wither and decay
The one I dreamt of just as unfamiliar as the others
And now, how memory gives way
To only sickness and rage
A plague echoed inside the skull as thoughts are covered
Flooding the same space
That you now occupy
You poisoned the well of the thoughts we think
Flooding the same space
That you now occupy
And I’ll drown myself that you’d never drink
So many you’d waste
So few I could save
The stars are fading the deeper I sink
So many lives we’d take
While they all screamed my name
The stars are fading the deeper I sink
A lonely light
Exhumes what’s left of me
A rage that is my own consumes a mind once lost at sea
A star so long dead
Before its light was seen
Reminds me of the skies beyond the grave that buries me
How joyful is the feeling
To feel something at all
How joyful is the feeling
To break free of a mind’s walls
Flooding the same space
That you now occupy
You poisoned the well of the thoughts we think
Flooding the same space
That you now occupy
And I’ll drown myself that you’d never drink
A lonely star’s light
Exhumes what’s left of me
Reminds me of skies far beyond my reach
A star so long was dead
Before its light was seen
Reminding me that I must take my leave
