A faded silhouette with a broken smile sitting in my chair I gaze at the abyss for a while wondering how things ever became so complex my fingers numb, but still they flex my muscles seeth with anger, bloated with fury I'm the apostle of failure, just look at my story; born from the womb of carelessness, now I can't feel a scavenger in this world all I do is steal grounded like a butterfly with broken wings hunting for shards of truth amongst other things I'm the height of sophistication, of lust, of adoration Oh if only I was
