Burning Me

Words
Set to curse a name in stone
I celebrate my death
A lost perspective, nothing left
So I
Burn my effigy
To end dichotomy
That was within me
(That was within me)
I've lived many lives
I've made a living from a lie
Truth rests inside my mind
Until I die
I know who I am
And what we are
The parasite that leaves the host to starve
I ask too much
From people I don't trust
In life, I find
Mistakes to hide behind
They took away your humanity
Leaving us for society
A choice I made early in life
To watch the world just drift away
No joy for me
It wasn't meant to be
Scratching the surface
Trying to find
Some form of meaning
For me to pretend
I am empty
Disillusioned by our creed
Our highest purpose
To destroy and to breed

Feast or Famine

Servants
Yearning
Earth is
Burning
Breeding
Feeding
For the
Species
Human
Sickness
Dying
Of Thirst
Bringing
New life
The world
Is cursed
When our home is swallowed whole
And we have nowhere to go
When the sun is glowing red
Three eclipses 'till we're dead
It's feast or famine
A struggle from within
We have the knowledge
To build the world again
Will we survive
A worldwide genocide
Or will we die
And leave it all behind
When we are gone
We will know we were wrong
Our time will come
The reckoning of us
The human timeline
The blink of an eye
A world we wasted
Our slow suicide
But when
The universe expires
Who would admire our accomplishments
When we turn to dust
Dark
The absence of existence
Beasts
With appetite for all
Membranes pulsing
Create the universe
An endless cycle
We are unneeded
Like we never existed
Space
Expands everlasting
The end of everything
Comes slow and quiet
This experiment will end
With no memory, in obscurity
Swallowed by the beast

I am the mutation cell
I am the variable
This is inevitable
Changing on a cellular level
Accept the future now
Embrace the futility
Listening for the sound
Of life slipping away
Start as one
They multiply
Slowly
A cancer grows
Inside
The doctors try
To find
A way through
Fuck, I'm dead
Soon it will end
So now
Life begins with
Renewed sense
Of oneself
Innate drive
To feast on life
I bathe in sin
I relish every selfish moment I can
For my time is limited
Our time is limited
The truth will be known
About the rivers through which our consciousness flows
The power of the mind
To make us see so much before we die
We always question purpose
Seeking out our place
Our presence is fleeting
Our species is replaced
With this fact in mind
It's important to remember
That a human lifetime
Is meant to teach you nothing
Waiting for the moment to shine
And then I died
