A Test

Take a look at me

Step back and look away

Now tell me what you see

I'll tell you they're not lies

 

Find an open door

Tell the stories you were told

Don't fall to the floor

Show them that you are weak

 

Make the bed in which you lay

Walk away from all you've hurt

Find a new place to destroy

I'll meet you on the other side

 

Now that you have a friend

Will you do less damage?

Wait one more thing

This was just a test
