I Resign
The clock is ticking
My soul is filled with spite
Such a thing is so ingrained into my bosom
It's thick red has stained my blue Knight
Perhaps remorse is also mingled within
Or perhaps some wicked crack has slipped Lucifer in
Please forgive me Oh Spirit
Release this Oh Mind
Forget my self-pity
To myself
I resign
