i can feel that old burning...
its found me again.

the mind is a powerful thing,
and you can only lie to yourself for so long
before your heart reminds you you're a fraud.

look at how they flock to him from an isle of open sores,

to make it the premise of our philosophy.

William Somerset Maugham - The Razor's Edge, 1943
