Symphony of Halt and Home

I cannot challenge such attributes. I cannot outshine. I cannot compete. By what you choose to value I am dim, unpolished and of little worth. And so, I lay down my weapons this night. I concede this fight. I offer all that I lack just to keep your attention for one minute more. To say, I will not fight this battle any longer, Blood against Laughter and Moon against Sun. I will not keep you chained though courtesy or guilt or sense of duty. I am not for this, I withdraw. I give up on this world. It has bested me and I am exhausted from fighting for it, Against it. As it never was, so shall it be again. A One, whom never belonged, returned from whence it came. Simple truths, like flame, extinguished in every hidden door. Home I go, Only Hope that I know, For this World I have nothing more.
