A snake that cannot shed its skin will be skinned the wolf who runs with sheep must be slain. Tonight, like all that come before it I dream of you again

It has been said that fate is woven by unskilled hands that make mistakes As I unravel your fate is wrought, it was always going to be this way

You had it coming.
