Xalmas

"fashion yourself whichever kingdom you desire and traverse all the stars in the sky if you so wish, but know: your soul is mine, and when the bell tolls you shall return to me from wherever you reside."

i couldn't outrun nor could i outpace you
you're faster than my despair
and everywhere i look, all i see is evil;
the evil is me

what can i say; it's always been this way
where this world assumes the worst
it becomes harder and harder to fight back
these recursive pains and feeble anguish
there's no one left that really cares

the prime my life simply drifting away
nothing goes as fast as my memories
(were they real anyway?)
and everywhere i look, all i see is evil;
the evil is me

always different and always somehow the same
virtues to be extolled somehow, someday
i understand it only as a cyclic sickness
