We both have feet to walk
We both have ears to hear
We both have mouths to talk
We both have skin to bare
We both have hair to shave
We both have nails to clip
We both have brains that make us brave
We both have tears to drip
Why is it that I feel so inhuman?
We both seem to have the same content
But you know i'd shed this body in an instant
It's like I'm some kind of alien
I know my eyes simply don't have that glint

I want to vanish
I want to escape
I would if I could,
I am wearing this blood-stained cape
It carries my morals
It soaks up the sadness
It burns all the fires inside
It contains all my madness
If only I could remove it
If only I could be free
If only I was myself
If only I were who I wanted to be

My body is empty
It feels like a shell
It still has guts, it still has a brain, but...
Where has the life gone?
Where has the energy disappeared to?
Where is the emotion I once felt?
Why am I so hateful?
Why can't I be faithful?
Perhaps it's the absence of something
A friend, that's it
An old friend
Somebody I used to know

Forget about me
Leave me to rot
I've already dug my grave
It's as comfortable as a baby's cot
My wish for death needs to be sated!
How do I approach this desire?
Each day brings me closer
I'm already walking on razor wire
This needs to stop
This needs to end
So goodbye for now
My dear old friend

Addiction
Some battle with it, some turn a blind eye
Just try it once and you'll soon see why
Don't indulge too much, they like to say
But being out of my mind is the only way
I can't escape the hellish grasp
I can only wait for my cravings to pass
For some it's drugs, for some it's ***
I wonder what vice will catch on to me next?
