Two Meteors

It all starts from afar
It all starts from within
Fueling the dissipated life
To induce a little sin

Duplicitous mind is yours to abide
The obliquity of heart is all mine
We lick numb virgins against the mist
Beset with virtue though none applied

Trying to recall the impregnable faith
That was mine once before
As hard as trying to forget the kindness
That was yours but no more

The King is gone
To the edge of the world
He is restless like a caged bird
Under the gods
The bastards are born
Rousing devils neatly suborn

And here we are
Two foreigners
Who’ve wandered aimlessly
In and out of each other’s heart
One meteor as we enter
And the other as we depart

Two eternal moments
Presents of the Past to the Future
Shine through to delude time
That old insistent vulture

I will survive tomorrow
And so will you
And so will they

But we will not
