I do not live
And if I did...
In a way it is comfortable
drowning in the present...
We used to dream of battles won
Now truths slump heavy on our tongues...
(possible trigger warning)
It used to be I didn't sleep...
What made us hungry for our own destruction?
A strange disease that makes us lose our function...
I reach with spider webs for fingers
Connecting souls within my life...
The stars collapsed
and in their flames...
I gather the stars in a basket
And bask in the flickering light...
The stars blink sadly
And I blink back...
Stay with me, darling
Though night is endless...
It's dangerous
Finding substitutes for love...
When you don't wanna wake up tomorrow
It's hard to work today...
