Holed up in a closet with half a pint or so Too slowly disheartening for the time it takes And far too enigmatic for the plans I've yet to make Yet I move with every atom drawn emancipated Yet the context of neurons And bitter sweet memory all a fabrication Another thin layer of nostalgia to force feed the sleeping beast And even as I disregard, it comes up through the latency so brazen Another helpless mess of chemicals to feast upon Boring A **** shame as well Charismatic yet moments away from being half adjusted Using every empty vow of justice to reciprocate He must've mustered every ounce of faith based forgery And the internal jury applauds All is for naught, but drowning in waste deep Self pity is for suckers I can drown in less than half an inch Selfishness is only realized once Pride stops you from making friends Maybe the fear hits nearer to home Reopen its wounds like the case that lay dormant but provable Felonious though it may be once you disregard empathy You know he did And yet it bleeds Still it moves Cognition taken for granted, but by who? Sure, the long since departed had so much to lose But If with every passing breath they would've ****** down oxygen With the same callousness he possessed When cutting off their heads Doesn't the burden fall on you as well... Sending a man to hell is no easy task Bask in the grace you made for yourself Bending the page with ink that you've layerd With blood and homage to past ruling lieges That murdered their wives for no god **** reason Tragedy only strikes in pairs Taking the same heads off twice One visible, the other not so much
