I thought we were friends,

Not some kind of entity

And I will never be all

You want me to be

And what is with all this

Undermining crap?

But once you've said it

There's no going back


I'm surprised you're eyes haven't turned brown from all the bullshit you spout

But you've claimed it

And then everyone believed it

Because why wouldn't they

You've turned them into uncultured louts


You're like a hen, always worried

And like a hawk, always watching

And like the crows, forever waiting

And wanting the brightest thing

That you will never reach


I've been in the shadows my whole life

And my successors before me

Words stretch and break and reform

But always convey the same


Hiding my luster from

Those who wish to take it

Filling their minds with swirling fog

To replace rational thoughts

And it seems I the only one not affected


Rather trapped in a cage with whitewashed fog

Wheeled there by your attendants

Inside my mind no longer controlling my body

But you are and you have been released

Let's hope this won't be the downfall of them

But I never liked humanity anyways
