i've come to show you what its like to be human

you only know so much



these are called mistakes but sometimes

when you think hard enough

they don't exist



also, there is no meaning

unless you assign the meaning, of course

and it can all explode inside your mind one day

and then by night, it'll be you again

clean and pure



drink some nights away but

save others for yourself

allow your soul to wander

and be alone for a while

it needs to be fed solitude

in order to keep the light



come back to me, though

always come back to me

because i belong to this earth now

i'm rooted in this ****** up civilization

poisoned by corruption

injected with lies, over and over again

and now i am a different version of myself

i've inhaled the sin and it keeps me here



but you can still be far away when you want to

i came here to teach you how walk steady between it all-

light and darkness, life and death, truth and lies

the teetering bridge that brings us all together

balance yourself and don't look down.
