You creep around
this gloomy town
I see you everywhere
Invading all our homes and lives
The cause of every tear
You pollute our minds
You put fear in our hearts
Never showing a bit of remorse
Ravaging
Raging
You don't hold back
You take the world by force
But beside the harm you do to us all
There's something I can't get passed
While some see your face every now and again
Others
You cruelly harass
What did my mom ever do to deserve
Your ugly abrasive embrace
You plague her steps
I can see your scars
I can see you on her face
The fastest man can't outrun you
You beast
The strongest can't fight you off
You infest the sick with your repulsive presence
In their beds
In every cough
You're ruthless
You're reckless
And your reach is worldwide
There's not a soul
That can hide
From the moment we're born
Till the moment we're gone
In the shadows
You surly reside
But even if I again feel your grasp
A hundred times worse then ever before
I won't let you manipulate a moment of mine
I won't live in this fear anymore
They can take my breath away slowly
Within you will find no strife
I'll just look you dead in those cold grim eyes
and say
"You never commanded my life"
