Dying Proof

What are you trying to prove?
You dress to kill,
But you only destroy yourself.
You speak of wisdom
When you yourself are a fool.
You run the race
While you have nowhere to run to.
You seek redemption,
But you deny it all the same.
What are you trying to prove?
I prove nothing,
Except that I know what I don't know,
And that what I don't know,
I'm not sure I want to know...
