Duality (The Yin)
Negativity breeds negativity,
Falling off of tongues, hurtful words we say.
It's lonesome in this City,
A communicable State of Decay.
Fight fire with fire,
Does that not seem absurd?
Amid this lonesome City, State...
Our precious structures burn!
God is dead, as is compassion,
Empathy as well.
Becoming anger, blind fruition,
Selfish tides due, swell.
Purge the system of aversions,
Feed the Demon's wrath.
Void of all Love's inspiration.
Another epic lapse.
Silent words upon my brow
Debate translates to lies.
Apathy takes over now,
Recognition burns my eyes.
Now that we have laid these bricks,
That pave the way to Hurt,
Repent our sins, inflict ourselves,
Return the ash to Mother, Earth.
