“Calm. Kindness. Kinship. Love. I’ve given up all chance at inner peace. I’ve made my mind a sunless space. I share my dreams with ghosts. I wake up every day to an equation I wrote 15 years ago from which there’s only one conclusion, I’m damned for what I do. My anger, my ego, my unwillingness to yield, my eagerness to fight, they’ve set me on a path from which there is no escape. I yearned to be a savior against injustice without contemplating the cost and by the time I looked down there was no longer any ground beneath my feet.
What is my sacrifice?
I’m condemned to use the tools of my enemy to defeat them. I burn my decency for someone else’s future. I burn my life to make a sunrise that I know I’ll never see. And the ego that started this fight will never have a mirror or an audience or the light of gratitude.
So what do I sacrifice?
Everything!”

the yearning to be the Saviour is the messianic complex
this leads to megalomania
at which point you have become the very thing which you set out to save the world from
yet when you invoked being damned
that is acknowledging a higher authority to submit to, even if only subconsciously
and thus there is an escape after all
for there is no cause to yield upon the road to Calvary
over the top into the breach we go
no fears on earth
