You Backbiter

This face of love was all we yearned
But when the new children begin to see
These bodies are all we need

Envy, oh envy, the knife is here


We are on the coast, a place of stillness

We were at peace with ourselves

Mayhem, calamity, chaos, once serene

Now all it seems is a foretold sin


We are all the children

All molded from once nothing, it seems

Perfectly, fearfully, in this differentiating form

You are for a greater light


Oh no, you're not alone

This people breath, lost in the ambient air

When the sky gives birth to sworn thoughts

Resist the sky and it will fly away

1 two cents' worth:
