Vergissmeinnicht

by T. MORGAN

Don’t forget to sing though the sun won’t rise,
One man against a beast with a thousand eyes,
Choke through the snake wrapped around your tongue
and
Remember:
You’re never the only one.

(You’re nothing without yourself.
You’re nothing without yourself.)

Fallen stars bleed a silver light,
No gold to lead your path tonight,
You’ll follow against the planet’s might,
One man against a monster:
Stand and fight!

You’ll stand against nothing though you are blind,
Locked in the darkness of your own mind,
You’ll stare down the world you no longer see,
Always screaming: ‘Remember me’.

(Always dying, but remember me.)

Don’t forget to sing though the sun won’t rise,
One man against a world of a thousand lies,
A solitary army, though still so young
but
Remember:
You’re never the only one.

The sky is bleeding, hidden from sight,
The ice in your heart is a fatal blight,
Your worlds will spill forth though you cannot write,
One man against a devil:
Stand and fight!

A fallen angel forbidden flight,
A heartless demon that knows no fright,
You’ll never be what you want to be,
But still you’ll whisper: ‘Remember me’.

(Still you’ll murder, but remember me.)

Don’t forget to sing though the sun won’t rise,
One whisper fighting through a thousand cries,
The final breath of a hymn unsung,
now
Remember:
You’re always the only one.
