Between Two Worlds

The darkness pulses like a failing heart As father's form begins to fall apart More violent now, each transformation burns The void itself convulses as he turns Between two worlds He's coming undone The wife he lost The searching son The space between choices Is tearing him through And now the dark's collapsing around him too The collector's voice rings warning through the void This manifestation must not be destroyed But time and space reject this brutal scene Of man existing caught between betweens The boundaries are breaking, systems fail As a father's endless torment tips the scale Existence itself Rejects this display Of endless division Day after day In his eyes I see the cost of never choosing The addiction to possibility is slowly what's consuming Not just him but everything The void around us learning That some choices left unmade leave universes burning Now the darkness claims its price For witnessing this sight Father's form deteriorates In accelerating flight But still he cannot choose Between these worlds of pain Preferring destruction To choosing again Again
