Principle of the Line

Burn my eyes to ashes

Nothing to see

I'm singeing off my lashes

One by one

Cut ties you can't save

It's like ripping off a band aid

If you feel ashamed

You're not doing it right

Relegate your fears

Get depressed for thirty years

Smoldering cinders from bridges

I will never cross again

Burn my lungs to ashes

Nothing to breathe

A putrid rotting carcass

Just like me

You have reached the end

As the last lights flicker out

I am walking towards life's exit

But my shoes are made of glue

Indulge in everything

Why can't I make myself feel happy?

An ever growing darkness

That is eating me alive

Burn my life to ashes

Nothing is real

An inner conversation

That I can't hear
