I often wonder When I’m at my lowest When I shake and squeeze my eyes shut At the thought of the phantoms Chasing me, If phantoms have a memory. And if they do, They, who murdered my naivety And planted this living demon in me… Can they even remember What they’ve done? Do they know the mark they left? And if not, I think About how great it must be To sit yourself down, build a throne In someone else’s land, **** all its inhabitants; flood the streets with blood, Get bored, and then decide All in one small moment, that You could just stand up And leave.

It Took Only a Moment
I often wonder When I’m at my lowest When I shake and squeeze my eyes shut At the thought of the phantoms Chasing me, If phantoms have a memory. And if they do, They, who murdered my naivety And planted this living demon in me… Can they even remember What they’ve done? Do they know the mark they left? And if not, I think About how great it must be To sit yourself down, build a throne In someone else’s land, **** all its inhabitants; flood the streets with blood, Get bored, and then decide All in one small moment, that You could just stand up And leave.
