Life is love and joy and light
But sorrow's when I live

Morality does break my mind
With hurt and pain and dark
Awakens beasts a-plenty
With malicious thoughts alone
Stories come and go like crows
Caw-cawing through my thoughts
These poems, songs, and lyrics fall
Like rain from damaged hearts

Truths so dark that most ignore
For ignorance is key
Freeze in glacial mass
That never quite pass me
Fundamental laws of nature
Seep through safety's cracks
Then lies,
Though comfort,
Fade away
As cruelty
Fogs my vision
Right and wrong
Lose any, all
Connection with precision

Clouded souls
Stumble, fall
Mistakes are surely made
Life is gauged in happiness
Yet known in sorrows shade
