Universal State of Melancholy

Stuck in a drought
This life unfolds so slow
Ambition a friend I can’t keep in my close circle
Universal state of melancholy

Colleagues in suffering
In comfort nothing grows
Calluses go soft in the hands of happiness
Anxiety, human abyss swallowing me whole
Swallowing me whole

Admission of guilt
Admission of dishonesty
Admission of the fact that I don’t do what’s best
Admission of denial, of stagnancy
Admission of the tumult which brews deep inside of me

I'm stuck, stuck in a drought
Pain is the way out
