If I alone were to sit here
waiting for rivers to run red
and earth to crack underfoot
I would simply drown myself
in narcotic slumbers
and Stolich-nay-aaah elite
"Smooth like an alibi"
Staying alive would be far
from my madding mind
Stillness and drunken rambling
protecting all known secrets
clutched as a desperate shaken fist
until the tragic end of days
"Everyone is someone's secret"
But I find myself a protector
of more than secrets (and lies?)
Nothing to do but turn them away
and wait; whilst tightly defending
a cherubs thoughts, in a moment
of realisation and death
