As This River Gives
As this river gives
Not giving a damn
Emptying the lake of hate
This ecosystem dies
But was it ever alive?
Surviving in my illusions
Confusions of my soul
The depth of this sinkhole
Without any reflections
Nothing to mention
Only the hollowing cries
Self-loathing and the denies
Saturated tears
Muddled in fears
Storming, destroying
Agonize. Agonize
The final goodbyes
Symbolize and romanticize
Over simplifies the terrorize
The moments of absences
The defenses and fences
The brilliance of the game
Shifting the blame
This river of shame
But now, I avow
I’m not giving a damn
I’m not giving a damn
Transforming, performing
Good bye echoing cries
Good bye misting eyes
Scattering, shattering
Soaring, crystallize
Forming rainbow skies
As this river gives
I’m not giving a damn
I’m not giving a damn
