The Universal

He gracefully speared my malleable young heart

With a spear of sulphur and his knowledge of the dark

There, in a split of a second - it all was gone

The moon, the stars and the majestic sun

Since then darkness has travelled with me

In this inner maze of confusion and greed

Sorrow is ever present, active in its mission

Behind me, nothing but a trail of friction

Days have slowly turned into years

Like I - once innocent - heve turned evil and fierce

But sometimes - in a glimpse - I recall what's gone

The moon, the stars and the majestic sun

Ever since, sadness has travelled with me

In this somber maze of confusion and greed

The everlasting state of darkness

The universal all-consuming shadow of life
