Sorrows serenade to slay serenity
Singing songs of strikes and surrender
Soaking sins in strong spirits
Stripping souls of sight and selves
II
So I share this self sitting on your shelf
Knowing I’m naught but a small shell
Slipping through slopes of a Shredded shroud
Sinking through sharks in their summer stores
Hoping to find a shine in a shrine
Left years with soulless strings
III
So spare me the swings
…and share the solutions
Spare me the should’ves
…and show me the shore
Spare me the subjects
…and secure me a saved
For none ships a skeletal shell
…to a maker through paths unknown
I only know of the gods my heritage left
And hope to find a shine there
To travel through a spirit with a soul so fair
