See All Evil

Pick my mind up, brush off the dust

Wait what's this I'm missing a part?

Turn it over there lays a smouldering dart

Flick it off and blow away the specks of rust

 

Twist my head off, place it inside

Reconnected to my neck for the final time

Flash to the stage, velvet arms wide

Nervous in the presence of grand design

 

A grander plan I couldn't understand

In prayer to the Devil I clasp my hands

"Please reset the face, such high demand

For just living on a home and residing on land"

 

Turn to the Heavens I hope you exist

Because its the last place left on my bucket list

Everywhere I go still holds zero hope

And surrounded by people I'm surrounded, alone

 

I'll fight my way out, only killing myself

Choke another me by whipping out my belt

Turn to a monster, the mirror on the wall

Place a bullet with shaking hands and laugh as the glass falls

 

Shred my skin off underneath a clear sky

All I smell is blood, my flames never die

The rage that drives me, the fuel in supply

The fact it ends me I will always deny

 

The only death I see is the walls around me

Closing in on my head is such a bounty

The last time I got lost they never found me

I walked back in because I felt unease

 

Finally I embraced it, now we are one

If my words are bullets then my fists are the gun

One follows the other, when you're knocked down cold

I laugh at myself and condemn that soul

 

A tremble of the hands indicates an animal

The smile on my face painted for the carnival

Makeup smudged crying against the door

I turn around and walk because I walk no more

 

My heart is a nade with two seconds left

The pin was pulled when you stole my breath

I felt the pain of it through my chest

You gave me reason to keep killing the rest

 

Every day I wake and sling my crossbow

Because when I'll see another me I can never truly know

I **** these demons, I see all evil

I **** myself because they're not real people
