Rosy dreams of means.
Justification after the fact
Rationalize your failures in a moral safety sack.
Fun's gone down while complacency goes up.
You failed to chase after it graced you.
You failed to keep your nose on the tail.
You failed to open up your life to a modern fairy tale.
You're suborned in to night, possessed by desperate hopes gnawing
at the wreckage. incited by the swelling flesh absorbing it all
like wildfire.
