about

We sing in mourning for past conceptions
Our voices echo, yet fall unheard.
A lament for the contorted mirror.
The shards embedded in the hands once broken

Blinding and perpetual this moment
Seeing all potential yet somnolent
Discordant and deafening this silence
He, the avatar of the voiceless

In this
Process
I grieve for concrescence
Witness
Endless
Weakness
And devolve

Regress
Decay
Descend
Reflect
The mirror
Retain
The cracks

Desecrated, a mind once raptured
From all this madness, now nailed down to it.
A violent cycle, of endless decline.
The wretched view of, our eyes unopened.

I see in you what could have been
In you i see stagnation's progeny
A wilful indolence's fallacy has caused this paralysis; for you to atrophy
I see in you eternity
In you i see ceaseless entropy
Atavistic rituals' have stopped all exigency

No

In this
Process
I grieve for concrescence
Witness
Endless
Weakness
And devolve

Regress
Decay
Descend
Reflect
The mirror
Retain
The cracks
B: The cracks

Desecrated, a mind once raptured
From all this madness, now nailed down to it.
A violent cycle, of endless decline.
The wretched view of, our eyes unopened.
Undone by the blood
