The view through

The window

Rotates 90 degrees, just so

Before the sunset --

Before whatever you had signaled

Broke into fragments

And reached for my skin

I thought I had seen

A hollow perspective

But this was before the warmth

Reached our childhood homes

I had loved to see your eyes

Pierce through my hands

At maximum,

Yes.

Unmount and disregard

The small shards of death

In that one town

Before that age.

Fucking hell

Some of us were built to fail

It's what we learn

When we crash and burn

They say

We built to succeed

But shit,

Once that seed's planted

It's hard to uproot

Once you landed

There's no more flying

The way I see it,

There's only dying

Every minute I'm closer to death

Every moment I'm deeper in debt

And deeper in debt and closer to death

The devils laugh

I know where I'm headed to

I know where I'm headed to.
