I am made of infatuation, shame and forever gloom
You could not fall
This is not the chessboard of your dreams
No pawn makes—
No bishop makes
The queen takes, is taken an equal
This is not an aisle of rebirth
Or some sombre remembrance
It halts, it halts
The numbers lessen
I did not abandon, I am still here
Yet, a halt lingers
Like death stuck on the precipice of throat
A life of a single lifetime of a thought
I am energy, a little restless
But restless so out of the nature of self
Like the eye of a rook
On the king through a rook

A stupor unblinking
Like the sharpening of a dream
The knight-slide like an Arabian sword
The king scuttles
Rook takes rook, king takes rook

I fancied myself a manly dream
But it doesn’t work like that, does it—
The game writes, and children play
Now I wait the shameful minutes away
(And I watch your hands, so patient, simple
Say, are you dead or pleased?)
And I watch your hands
I should’ve looked up when I had the chance
Now the brooding leaves
And my eye hardens
Father, you have won
With a dream so well, you played just right
I should have not worshipped the pawns like that

In this city where
millions dream
wake up dead,
I've come
with a dream
to see you again.

Just, I wait and still have the aw.. twisted turning... and still makes me weak....
The tortured still waits to weep
And I still wait for the wolf...
For she stills awaits
..on me
Look on how hard, I..
But still I mark!
And I still move..
My family has to weep too...
But I cry to U.. unionist for the hope

We're on our way out and still there is
Nothing to see
I don't even know why you are still
Speaking to me
Honestly think I have discharged myself
Honorably
But the world still feels like I made
An enemy

Back then when the truth was granted
We didn't care
We made a many headed beast
Out of thin air
Gladly set up our bright red flags
In New Nowhere
Then we climbed up our last mountain
And nothing there

Sometimes the answer is right there
In broad daylight
You can't see it through your foggy
Daily delight
Meanwhile we're connecting the dots
With all our might
We recall words are meaningless
And then we write

You look so pale
Must have not finished your vegetables
You look in pain
But there's something else on the table
In case you don't know
I'm dealing with my own fables
If you're asking me
I think you make a huge gamble

Sow the seeds of doubt
I know the truth will never grow
The dirt on others
Shouldn't really affect my glow
I know what is right
You forgot to enjoy the flow
Enjoy the great gift I bestow
I don't only do this for show

They told you what ?
I think that you should know better
Don't get held up
On think that should never matter
You know what is real ?
Their airs will just make you madder
Don't talk about me
I'm doing things by the letter
