My body is overwhelmed with a deep gut wrenching feeling One that sickens your motivation and nauseates the core of your soul. I know I made the wrong mistakes Flipped, turned the page without even reading what the story entailed Wish I wouldn't have turned that book in Its been checked out by another and who knows if it'll ever be returned. It's one of those feelings, the kind that leaves you catatonic Things don't make sense and I'm losing consciousness at elevated peaks Reality is a karmic reminder which feeds me to a daily treat Stuffing me with flashbacks of all the wrongs where I knew it was right I'd like to say "this too shall pass" but it hasn't and I'm not sure it ever will Its been years, feeling like a lifetime This burden has burrowed into my heart Leaving traces of you, leaving remnants of what was once created This burning desire remains at stake If it's going to live within me forever Tall tale sign of regret, Please, someone throw some water on me As if it were a baptism Wake me up and release the chemicals that drown me into this lake of fire
