Flambeaux

When gods and devils walk through the street

And a red haired girl spits on you for no discernible reason

You might think the universe is chaos

You might; but you’d be wrong

When he picked up that pistol and brought an end to himself

You might have thought it was the ultimate proof

of a hard and cold wall at the center of everything

You might; but you’d be wrong

When you realized that those gods and devils were nothing

That you couldn’t see within yourself

And that the red haired girl was you, spitting upon yourself

And before the bullet casing hit the floor, he’d already landed somewhere soft

Maybe, just maybe

You were onto something
