A thousand miles behind my eyes
I gaze upon this world
Through hazy, distant window panes
The shapes and faces swirl
I hear their call, they know my name
I try for a reply
But voice will not return to me
Neither whimper nor a cry

The fog rolls in
It clouds my mind
Numbs my body
Dulls my senses
Obscures my judgement
And any passing ship
Will surely crash

We share each other's breath
Stardust one and all
Falling endlessly together
On this humid little ball
A web of beating hearts
Tethered to each other
I love you like myself
But I would end you for a dollar

Light a candle
Stay at my side
Sing me a lullaby
Till sleep overtakes me
Make me a bed
Of earthen walls
My spirit is light
My body is heavy

I am man
Destroyer of worlds
Ask the survivors
Of the ant hill out back

I am man
Practitioner of violence
See for reference
My arsenal of Nerf weapons

I am man
Taker of life
My double bacon cheeseburger
A ****** trophy

I am man
Celebrator of brutality
I gotta go
The game is on

Life is but this fleeting moment
There it goes again

I remember well the day you died
I saw my glimmer leave your eye
The room went cold
Your heart went dry
We waited years to say goodbye
