III

Don't expect me to be a guiding light,

I can only darken your soul.

Don't expect me to show you a path,

I will only lead you off the cliff.

Don't rely on me,

I am nothing but obscurity at best.

Your co-dependence is throttling

My shoulders are tired, too weak to carry my own weight

If you hop on, the bones will smack and break.

I'm the poison smeared upon the forbidden fruit.
