All your apologies
Mean nothing to me
Your only here because I’m here
There’s nothing else to see

If there was a reason
I’d love to hear it
But all you do and all you say
Comes nowhere near it

I’m on my knees
Facing rejection
Looking through stained glass
I finally see my reflection

Repent and confess
All of your problems
I’ve lost it, lost them
Lost me

Make a wish…
You’re already living it
Dig a grave…
You’re already digging it

Digging deeper with scoops of clay
Maybe one day I’ll drown in it
Make my way down the wishing well
Dig until I drown in it

I’ll scream but they won’t hear
An abandoned well, I cannot bear
I’d live but they won’t save me
Make a wish and wish for death
Deep within the abandoned well

Thought to be extinct
Their carcasses range a thousand years
If ever seen again
They’d wreak havoc on us all

Lazarus taxonomy
Finally got the best of me
Extinction is but a claim
Yet I call them out by name

We’ll say they’ve come back
But they never really left
All they ever did
Was plot their descent

They’re murderers at heart
Just don’t try to get smart
Let the whole world know
That they’re all gonna die

Leaving everything behind
No material possessions left to find
Running away on two feet
It’s just me and the sidewalk streets

Missing posters with no reward
I’m worthless and without remorse
Stolen goods feed my empty soul
There’s just no goal worth fighting for

No phone to call home
No place to call home
No way to calm down
No way to climb out

The farther I go the less I fear
Of recognition, I shed a tear
There’s nothing more for you to hear
I’ve seen it all within a year

They thought I’d be dead by now
Leaving without a trace
I’ve been gone for so long
That wrinkles stretch my face

They've got me a whole funeral
For that’s what’s understood
Yet I’ve been living off rodents
In my lodge within the woods

No more electricity
Isolation is the way
It’s all those simplicities
That makes me want to stay

I lived like a hermit
Couldn’t stand the abuse
I never trusted anyone
For they’d call me but a recluse

I’ve lost my appetite
As I sit here alone
No comforting meal
No comfortable soul

I watch those around me
Sit there and chat
While I’m left to fend
For my pathetic self

I’d go on strike
But no one would care
I just don’t feel like eating
While all of them stare

They don’t think much of me
For I show no emotion
But inside I’m screaming
With no single motion

They’ll cast me aside
For I’m a lost cause
All that I’ve lived for
Has been what I’ve cost

I see my reflection
In a much darkened screen
For if anyone saw me
They’d call me obscene

I feed off toxicity
I live off the poison

Cyanide pills from apple seeds
Crush them up, encapsulate
Feed them to your enemies
Or drop it in their drinks

They call it forbidden for a reason
It’s the fruit that never dies
Yet if I crush it up real fine
It’ll make your family cry

They call me Johnny Appleseed
The way I make ‘em feed
Could’ve used a gun
But that would make ‘em bleed

I feed off toxicity
I live off the poison
