The Grey King |
| The pit is vast as it is empty |
| And the emptiness is its draw |
| Paved on the footsteps of great minds |
| The columns of the kingdom stand tall |
| The mortar composed of buried hope and dead faith |
| Petrified philosophers stand guard at the gates |
| Adrenaline coalesces with lucidity |
| The void is not a cage |
| The void is a throne |
| The crown is covered in the blood of my former self |
| And his demise makes me feel nothing |
| I am asked to cry out for freedom |
| I am silent |
| I am told to report terror |
| I am silent |
| I am tasked to speak of dread |
| I am silent |
| If the world begs for a testimony |
| The world will be left wanting |
| Sinister warnings fall hard under a relentless gravity |
| The horrors of this place have grown benign and I am thriving in the muck |
| Ashes coat rusted skeletons of monuments made to dead ideas |
| My lungs are coated in soot and I learn to breath fire |
| Not to exhale any sort of weapon, but inhaling inexorable truth |
| Kings wilt atop weathered podiums |
| Commanding a society of cockroaches that will not bow |
| Heavy crowns wear down weak necks |
| The sun no longer reflects on the gold |
| Majesty in all forms is dead |
| And will not ever be reborn |
| My sky is black forever |
| For my ceiling does not stop at the clouds |
| This universe is vast |
| Full of great useless monoliths |
| Suspended in dark matter |
| No stories to tell but the great withering of time |
| This universe is a graveyard |
| Coffins orbit coffins |
| Each corpse so convinced |
| The graveyard was made in tribute to them |
| This makes me feel nothing |
