you bright sun
you darkest dirt
hardest paradox i ever learned
you're tireless
and i tire quick
it’s the easy death of reason within my chest

you bright sun
you darkest dirt
hardest cryer i ever heard
you cry out your orders
you cry out your pain
and every letter's followed like its sacrosanct

i'm at the mercy
of an idiot tyrant king
i jump high! talk loud! and listen? i'm always listening!
cause he built his throne from my bones and skin

i love, i hate, i hate to live this way
a dog, a slave, we do what our deity dictates

and i just want
someone to lean on
i just want someone
to lean on me.
