Courage is only fear , who's said it's prayers. Incantations won't ulter this reality. You can't negotiate your way out of hell's emptiness. Language knows no boundaries. But Latin is more effective. Despite our constant speaking in tongues. This is exhausting. Like a Venus retrograde. I'm screaming on the edge of nothing. Waiting for your echo, to bounce back to me. If time doesn't exist. Then why does mine feel so wasted? One day was a nice thought. But I can't live in no man's shadow. I cast a few of my own.

The Venus Retrograde
Courage is only fear , who's said it's prayers. Incantations won't ulter this reality. You can't negotiate your way out of hell's emptiness. Language knows no boundaries. But Latin is more effective. Despite our constant speaking in tongues. This is exhausting. Like a Venus retrograde. I'm screaming on the edge of nothing. Waiting for your echo, to bounce back to me. If time doesn't exist. Then why does mine feel so wasted? One day was a nice thought. But I can't live in no man's shadow. I cast a few of my own.
