To be as I am You must experience What I have been through What I have felt, and thought Not only during the events I keep Chained to a wall in the unconscious of my psyche But in all of the times I have taken simple pleasures And soiled them With my lure of taking pretty things And ripping them apart
What a horrid habit of mine To take a good situation And manipulate it until all I have to do Is strike a match, stand back, and watch As everything that was once beautiful Turns to ruins at my feet The only things left are The memories I have Of the horrible things I've done Another set of chains on the wall
