Forsake Me This Mortal Coil

Lay me down in darkness
Forsake me this mortal coil
Relinquish

Copulate propagate species multiply
Presupposed course of history
By not choosing to learn we refuse
Predestined - mass choice amputation

Immolated spectrum of the senses
Cauterization of thought and deed
Tragic doom - generations of flesh
Assimilate choice with the plight of carrion

Unlearned facts dictated before
Etched in transgressions of the past
Life is an execution
Consumed by a will to the grave

Human nature paramount apathy
Futile pipedreams of hindsight
Ignorance of expression - inaction
Death absolves this wasted existence

Shrouded by pallid primacy
Visceral images
Rotted hope - the heart of man

Forsake me this mortal coil

Vicious circles turning ever quickening
Ugliness and desolation
Terminal means cut shorter still
And even as I speak the walls crush in

Lay me down in darkness
Forsake me this mortal coil
Relinquish

Entropy - atrophied emaciation
And what I know and always have
Bleak horizon awaits my resolve
Subconscious pathway to extinction

Relinquish
