I tried

I gave up

save me

from the nothing I've become

wake me up...

here you are

down on your knees again

trying to find air to breathe again

and I can ride my bike with no handlebars...no handlebars...

liar

killer

demon

back to the river aras

bulls on parade

now facing one another
the standoff eats at time
then all at once
the silence falls
as the bell ceases its chime

the figure stands expressionless
impassive and alone
unmoved by this victory
or the seeds of death he's sown
