As a single drop of rain falls in this ashen city, I’m a prisoner of memories holding their breath.
+
A mark is burned upon my eyelids as I brandish a fragile knife –
+
The future’s crumbling away.
+
Trapped forever in a world I see in slow motion,
+
Before I knew it, I was even hating myself…
+
Reaching my hand out to that forbidden fruit, nameless cells shout forth.
+
Flash of light, run forth, seeking to reveal this illusion –
+
I set off a siren for this “abnormal” era seeking perfection.
+
Ringing deep in my chest is a definite, doubtful discord,
+
As double-edged emotions pierce through me.
+
I can’t let this end yet;
+
Taking hold of an impulse that connects my decaying senses!
+
I question my indifferent brain:
+
“Are we all heading towards the end?”
+
Creation and destruction, approaching impermanence; as the present returns to a clean slate,
+
There’s just no point any more!

Two worlds intermingle, and I catch a glimpse of their instability –
+
The proof that something’s lacking there.
+
I’m sure the things people think are “correct” are simply echoes of the past,
+
But by breaking these patronizing iron shackles, and reeling in that intertwined fate,
+
I’ll pull the trigger resting beneath my finger!
+
Flash of light, pierce through, as an identity who drinks down this poison –
+
These words I hesitate to speak are blurring fragments of love!
+
Unable to unravel my own ego, I’m bewitched by another version of myself,
+
As a foolish emotion distracts me from the pain…
+
… drowning in a wavering instant.
+
Flash of light, run forth, seeking to reveal this illusion –
+
I set off a siren for this “abnormal” era seeking perfection.
+
Ringing deep in my chest is a definite, doubtful discord,
+
As double-edged emotions pierce through me.
+
Between the “beginning and end” –
+
Upon that borderline, I’ll cut my way through to a single possibility!
