Myth

slowly these days turn in circles

it’s yesterday now

tomorrow’s been and gone like the truth were just a novelty

just another building for dead people

just another white lie to blind faded eyes

the universe collapses

whilst lovers burst into flames

I forget the pain

I forget their names

repeat until it sinks in

remember all that’s worth forgetting

eternally slipping from view

I can’t find myself

not in a million years

eclipsed by ancient suns

and

drowned in the myth

of what it means to be truly alive
