I know deep down inside there’s nothing to hope for
Each day we set our dreams aside
To brave another nightmare
and roll the fated die
And always come up short
This world was taken away by ink and quill
Our lives repurposed
Our blood for zeros
The claws attack from every side
The mantis god approaches and lifts the veil
Save yourself, and go back to sleep
The savage beast approaches and tips the scales
Lay back down, and just close your eyes
Close your eyes and retreat in silence
Close your eyes, there is nothing left to see
It’s not what you’ve become
It’s what you’ve always been
