This is no far-fetched fantasy
There is no loop this is incendiary
Every battle is just one more
Without ever going to war
Here’s the door if you want it
It’s the only way out of insanity
But there you go caring again
There you go, never letting it go
If you hadn’t seen it you never would
But there it was and there it goes
A disappearing hearse rings destiny
So here you’ll stay with fear
Here you will live with sickening
Hate, Pity, Jealousy, Pride,
And self-deprecating Insufficiency
*You can’t be everything to everyone
You can’t save them all this time around
You can’t prevent all their catastrophes
You can’t help if they don’t help themselves
You can’t hold them quietly for eternity
You can’t . . . You can’t . . . You can’t . . .
You can’t . . . You can’t . . .
You can’t . . .
