In the Mirror I see I'm stained
Draped in an ink cell, shelled in pain
Bent over with soaking black tears
Why must I live in this cloak of fear
Hunched over frozen in a case of black ice
Slipping and sliding over the constant fights
Trapped in a fishnet of lies
Choked by the chokers of cries
Hidden behind a curtain of bangs
Constantly licking my bloodthirsty fangs
Watching from afar cloaked in shadows
My ears cuffed and pierced, arrested, abused, and exposed
Eyes painted in Abyss' rain
Wrist spiked with black frames
I am a walking talking, cold night
Physically Freezing, and drenched in blackness' fright
Now hand me your blade, and let me begin
To slice the tar that is sticking to this light within
The thick, inky muck that shells and suffocates
Is a monster that feels controlled and constrained
You don't want me to shine, you don't want to see me bright
You enjoy seeing this jewel locked up tight
Won't I be broken free from the rock?
Afraid my colors will attract too many thoughts?
Let this angel rip her wings out from underneath your rule
Let my eyes finally look up, I won't be fooled
I am disgusted with this gothic disguise
I'm breaking through, going into the light
