Commonplace of Lies

fearing the burning emptiness
of tragedy within
i give myselfto the caress
of many mortal sins

you rage in my ears cacphoniacally
yet i fear you not
you may cause my loneliness
but for your sins you will rot

i answer only for myself
not for the ancestral rage of yore
spinning a tale that's meaningless
a mindless heartless lord

danger rising up from depths
hidden behind thine eyes
i grow weary of your fables
your commonplace of lies

weary now i cannot break free
you draw me nigher still
i the fly and you the spider
pouncing on the kill

If life's a stage
We write the script
Personality the pen
The final act the final part
We all will meet our end
