Dear Me
How did I arrive at such a spacious abyss
Where conflicts are resolved with a tone
And peace is always a tool on the tongue
Would it have mattered if I say I am to blame

Should it be I am to blame would it have made a difference
Would it have been fault to the ears? Listen
Life says she's mysterious and hear hear
You who chose life chose destruction I hear

Had I not heard that life meant destruction
That living on its own is a heavy load taken
Could it be that we all got it wrong? I say
Take the load and not be swayed by its nature

For the fault of men lies not by their texture
And the doom of life is but a warfield abyss
That devour men and all in contact
Yet we all fell at the mercy of its masterpiece
