Pain, deceit, misery, and lies These are all I know and they're what I despise But that also means I hate me But the echoes of my past won't leave me be My sins, my crimes, my evil misdeeds I hate myself, yet I plant these seeds Hit me, punish me for all I've done I can't hide, I can't fight, I'm too frightened to run But the echoes, OH GOD THESE TERRIBLE ECHOES! I can not rid myself of them Burn me and make me bleed Either that or leave me be I don't deserve kindness Not for my cowardice Not for the pain I've caused Not for all of the lies I've taken their bliss I guided them until we were lost And I am the false shepherd until the last lamb dies I am a monster, hiding in a human's skin I am nothing but evil within I have good intentions and I want to do right But I can't because all I can do is extinguish the light Cut me down and punish me for what you have no knowledge of For I deserve it all if I am ever again to be worthy of love Worthy enough again for joy, laughter, happiness, and bliss These are the emotions I long for, I miss At the end of it all I ask for one tender kiss For me, undeserving, a monster amiss
