City of gods

These monstrous walls,
Absorb all but the night,
I am a preacher to your calls,
Guided by your metropolis light,
Bathed in your glow, moon, still, alone.
The gods of this city sit on a pigeon shit throne,
Rain falls heavy,
Rays ripple in...

Exhaustive energy

I'm tired,
Fucking exhausted I mean,

It grows no more,
This labored landscape,
Can be deceiving,
A new bridge built,
Has lost all...
