slumber has refused to grace my door
god has turned his eyes away from me
mercy mocks me, i hear my ears ringing
melodies unheard to the crowd flood my world like Nile's benevolence
i see her shadow everywhere, pain poking me like a spear of Mars
it overwhelms me to find her in arms of another
but that's her destiny, she is a priestess of love,
i cannot worship her all alone,
her blessings belong to every man in town.
