A biting melancholy fills the soul It desires not to cease We will see again and again That which is below cannot escape what is above Move Backwards you march revisiting old memories The bitter loneliness feeds upon your worthless heart as would an insidious vapid whore Secretly hold contempt for oneself with disgust These are the words which chill the air and drain the colour from my skin Time's arrow marches on Searing silent across the night Burning brightly with callous fury Leading us all astray Distrust is an effective shield and should be carried always Inuring yourself to a world of horrors is a timeless practice Alone you will find yourself as like a shadow Intangible, indescribable, and utterly forgettable Pray for better days The affections you seek lack the substance you admire Surround yourself with the delusion that you no longer have desires Crippling depression is a vicious gaping maw and you cannot get away Violently it digs deep unopposed into subconscious nature affecting everything you think and feel And just when you think you've finally gotten away it rears its ugly head and you're back again Time's arrow marches on Searing silent across the night Burning brightly with callous fury Leaving us all behind Pray for better days
