You don't see me true.
Rotting from the inside out.
My eyes are a clear blue.
A pretty soul I am without.

A dummy's head with a smile.
My demons ripped me apart.
Please talk with me a while.
My heart's an apple so ****.

Can you see the wiry strings?
Pulled by chosen oppressors.
Whip and beat until it stings.
This is my only true pleasure.

Eaten alive I'm almost gone.
Consumed by a kindled fire.
Will I witness a new day's dawn
My situation is beyond dire.
