Killing the Narcissist

I'm going to cut your supply I'm going to starve that destructive fire from oxygen The one which burns within you That desire to hurt I'm going to sweep your breadcrumbs from my doorstep Take back your sullen energy You who delight in sowing destruction Look into the mirror of your empty eyes and see what's inside your toxic well Your jealous empty heart contains nothing but deceit and destruction Your blatant lack of empathy has unveiled your deepest secret You have showed the world exactly who you are ... and finally we believe you No more alibis for you And once a serpent's head has been cut off It will rage out of control ... but only for so long Before it is no more Like one who has been struck with madness Like an addict without a drug I am no longer your supply I will save my empathy for those who deserve it And I forgive myself for unknowingly enabling you by buying into your games But most of all ... I'll be good to myself
