The Antebellum Soul

I've grown tired of this

surreal, trying-to-run-underwater paralysis

My thoughts will not expire,

even though I harshly insist

It's time to redirect my energy back to the war

The one I began waging over two years ago

I'll keep struggling against this innuendo

All for the hope to destroy my incoherency

Yet somehow still possess my secrecy
