(breath, breath - - -)

I have the strength to breathe?
My lungs know not the
Evil of my hands.

Evil dwells within my blood –
Coursing through my veins –
For who knows if the atrium
Of my heart contains not
The lively blood of man,
But the horrid breath of the
First to toss away his
Soul?

My chest shrinks; I burn.
How can I attempt to crush myself
If I myself am crushing me?

Call out my name, the one I know.
Great warrior am I, fighting, sweet selfishness!
My hood conceals my looks,
But reveals my face!

Oh, revelation, each step closer and
One falls. Each step closer is
One step further for another.
Do you wonder why you made it this way?

Find a drop of good in me and take it!
Steal it from me, I won’t steal it back.
For years of work would be broken
If you placed it back inside.

Break my evil – shatter it into
A million pieces!
So it is impossible –
A million pieces! Utterly impossible –
To fix it. Nothing is to be fixed
When I am here.

Fill me with hate, pour it into me –
Forcibly and irreversibly.
I cling to you, the one who
Leads me!
