A stoic man is only himself

A statue with two feet atop the truest tier

Attached to a pillar by two legs

No distinction, man on his stone stage

A heated blade doesn't cut what's cold

It melts with precision

Making what's weak begin to leak...

Cruelty's necessary decision

Flooding the mind with justification

A world dependent on waterways

But terrified when ice liquefies

Lives possessed by fear of flood

Not the hand holding the flame

Cruelty's necessary decision

Flooding the mind with justification
