Spent
Epitomized contempt, so delirious
Pick me up from the floor, I am resilience
Again
Anticipating the catalyst
I am gout, I am insidious
Metabolize my fragile spine
Face down in an early grave
The wires of my cortex unwind
Torments at bay
I disappear to the depths
Where your body is laid
Six feet beneath
Where these bones burden to tread
Father, where has the light fled
And if the good die young
Then we're all children born martyrs
Beneath an absent sun
Lay me to sleep
Lull me into the deepest of dreams
Because existence outside of these sheets
Has discovered my own worst enemy
These lungs have lost the will to breathe
Bargained my soul to the devil but the devil wanted none of me
Sedated within these visions of loathing
I bear the desecrated limbs of the early deceased
Face buried in their filthy hands
This cloak of masochism I adorn
Has become all that I am
The same wolves that swarm the ruins of the kill
Are children hand in hand, before the seance of my will
Stay awake for me
Don't be subdued by the quiet of sleep
Your sentience is what brings me peace
My will is your fatality
Lay me to sleep
Lull me into the deepest of dreams
Because existence outside of these sheets
Has discovered my own worst enemy
Stay awake for me
Don't be subdued by the quiet of sleep
Your sentience is what brings us peace
My will is your fatality
I am a storm that has found relief
