Solve et Coagula

Leave me alone,
Don't you know
I can't stand to be alone?
Lift me up then
Hurl me down.
Build me up then
Kill me.
I will starve myself
Or else I will
Devour your entire world.
I will run a thousand miles
Or never move.

I am dissolving.
I am coagulating.
I am transmutating.
I will not change.
I am base metal
I am gold.
I am the youth
That is aeons old.
I am a problem.
You can't solve me.
I am above.
I am below.

Shatter the daylight
Shatter it with darkness.
No plastic
Light
Emitting
Diode.
I will burn
For life
Before I am
Snuffed out.
