A Light We Cannot See

Crushed by the weight of words

Our world, the heretic

The language, that language I no longer speak

Nothing here to see; the tunnel closing in

Is something wrong?

I regret everything

Is it truth you speak?    

All the light we cannot see

If the vision turns bleak

They have carried me the gallows

Fear of no one to writhe, and no one to go        

So slowly we die down

Searching for release

Skin already through

I regret everything

No point in waiting, we know what to do

There are no answers; we already knew

A stain to cleanse; we  leave these hours

And regret everything
