I'll be drowning in my own cyanide shadow Strangled by the fear of the other side of my soul Frantically clawing my way through this saturnine existence Trying to regain any small remnant of innocence you stole
Falling from grace, burning from the flames within Ashes billowing through the air like uncontained Hell Remembering every movement, each scar you left And the lessons you taught me, I learned them well
Waiting for the kiss of liquid death to embrace me While watching crimson gold seep through the cracks The random bloodstained paintings on my arms Guide my soul like a map through this latest relapse
I beg of you, forgive me, you see me as a sin I'm the mistake you never intended to make So you left me in my own personal pit of despair A pit that you allowed daddy to help create
Why didn't you answer when I screamed your name? Why didn't you protect your daughter, mum? Why did you offer me to them as a sacrifice? Abandoning me to myself, cold, lifeless, numb
I know you'll never answer me, I'm wasting my time Just like I know that I'm much better off dead So I'll inhale another breath of my cyanide shadow And lay down my weary, storm-ridden head
