I feel that I'm nothing
But a ghost in a shell
And that's how it has
Always been anyways
But so far I never felt
Lost in the trappings
That made up my shell
It's loosened now a bit
Success makes the shell
Stronger and resilient
While it's an utter failure
Which brings the cracks
My dreams and visions
That made up my identity
Reality has now shattered
Now remain compromises
I survived even if the mess
But that reinforces the loss
Of all the things cherished
The broken shell has cracks
This shell which I thought
Was me was an illusion
And through the cracks
I can get glimpses beyond
Of time eternal ever-present
Nullness that ever permeates
Little that remains of myself
Seeking the final dissolution
But a ghost in a shell
And that's how it has
Always been anyways
But so far I never felt
Lost in the trappings
That made up my shell
It's loosened now a bit
Success makes the shell
Stronger and resilient
While it's an utter failure
Which brings the cracks
My dreams and visions
That made up my identity
Reality has now shattered
Now remain compromises
I survived even if the mess
But that reinforces the loss
Of all the things cherished
The broken shell has cracks
This shell which I thought
Was me was an illusion
And through the cracks
I can get glimpses beyond
Of time eternal ever-present
Nullness that ever permeates
Little that remains of myself
Seeking the final dissolution
