forgive me if I do not cry for the dead devils forgive me if I cannot find it within myself to apologize — for reading their words out loud in a non eulogy why can you not bear to hear it, the saw blades creeping closer? their sharp edges oiled by you, teeth cut on our bones how dare you? you ask when we merely hold up a mirror you got what you wanted, you see don’t you get it? this world drowning in blood, Death stalking a nation you let him in the door.

you got what you wanted
forgive me if I do not cry for the dead devils forgive me if I cannot find it within myself to apologize — for reading their words out loud in a non eulogy why can you not bear to hear it, the saw blades creeping closer? their sharp edges oiled by you, teeth cut on our bones how dare you? you ask when we merely hold up a mirror you got what you wanted, you see don’t you get it? this world drowning in blood, Death stalking a nation you let him in the door.
