Updating The Gods

How comes every word I had
Was taken by you?
I gave them to you
And you just threw them away

I can finally Feel
The urge of hypomania
This despair and greed
Gave me back the metanoia

And maybe you were my heart and my soul
But also my lack of self-control
And maybe you burnt the sky down as you fell
But you also the darkness around this hell

Interwined thoughts no more
No more deafing drone
I no longer call you love
Your hand I no longer hold...

My blood, my heart
Are as hollow as your name
The anthem I for so long sang
Is now only an ode I have tamed

When love is a sin
When craving is real
When blood is a threat
There's nothing left to say

Illusion turned to delusion
Miracle turned to mirage
As easy as water to wine
That's how deep is our entwine

So dark, so sensual
So right, so torn
You're the rose, I'm the thorn

So bad, so rotten
All that you've gotten
I'm the one who was forgotten

There's no end to this
But there are ways to lie
Even gods can be fooled
When you know how to survive...
