You ever wondered where

Your unconditionality went?

The way of the dodo

Your innocence spent

Humanity’s got the brain rot

I’m observing and silently sighing

I have faith in these grand things

That always end up dying

Writing these vague words

To keep my mind occupied

In an incomprehensible mess

I’m momentarily setting things right

The light is killing me

But I can’t shy away

Longing to be free

From the tomorrow of yesterday

I still love that girl

How fucked-up is that?

My reason and my heart

Locked in unending combat

Looking in all the wrong places

For some peace of mind

Alas, transcending kindness

Does not become my kind

I lose track of my creations

Of secrets, promises and lies

Trying to remain myself

In front of prying eyes

Coping with alleged truth

And other unpleasantries

Distancing myself from things

It seems no one else sees

My godlessness is tiring

Knowledge posing as wisdom

We wait and wait and wait and wait

For a train wreck at random

And all the frustration

And wicked sense of wrong

Is echoed in your unsaid

As you try to stay strong

Caring gets me nowhere

And I hate to let it be

But on days as dark these

I’m prone to apathy
