We’re all mortals living with a due date
Every single day, we deal with our own evils
Some days we make it through, some days we surrender to temptations
We all have heartaches
We all cry sometimes
And no matter how many times we tell ourselves to be strong
The haunting will return
And the great torment will repeat
Sometimes we tell ourselves to isolate ourselves
And kiss the concept of solitariness
A beautiful manifestation
That brings about no cool grandeur
We are made to propagate in another’s soul
With victory materializing only with the presence of evil
Sometimes we do things without thinking about the repercussions
And end up with ramifications we have no intent to clean up
We then strip ourselves defenceless
Permitting the world to judge In the end, we will hold hands
And find ourselves lying motionlessly in the crater of all creations
Amongst piles and piles of decayed memories
And in the midst of this timeless disintegration
We will fight to hold on to that one important memory
Of how this unwavering beauty began
