When I go out,
I make sure to take everything with me.
Nothing can be left behind,
I burn down the whole ******* city.
One by one,
I take a match to each and every building.

I inevitably end up lost in the debris.
Sometimes feeling overwhelming remorse,
For all the charred buildings.
I take my time sifting through,
Let each and every loss, run its course.

I can’t say, that I don’t know what I’m doing.
And i probably always will.
But one thing’s for sure,
I can handle life’s cheap thrills.

I know how to rise from the ashes,
Even ones created by me.
Dust myself off, learn how to breathe.
I’ve done it many times before,
Ensuring myself that in every lifetime,
I got me.

Does anyone else see what I see?
A man of high prestige;
Playing mind games with me.
A professor, a scholar, a social scientist.
He knows how to use his words,
He knows how to bait and switch.

It’s clear he gets off
At being in control.
Playing with women’s minds,
Until he crushes their soul.  
A man of great knowledge,
Who hide his tail between his legs.
The only way he can feel like a man,
Is by watching a woman beg.

They say what doesn’t **** you,
Only makes you stronger.
Like the day my world stopped,
When you didn’t want me any longer.

You said I was just too much,
and went from zero to one hundred.
Making you feel anxiety,
And you no longer want it.

I’ve been told better by worse,
But believe what you said.
I never was very good at handling,
My feelings up against a ledge.

did you feel like a man,
when you placed your hand,
around my neck?

taking control,
watching me fold.
i lose; you win.

You came in so strong,
It knocked me off my feet.
I’ve been pulling myself up,
Since you stopped my world last week.
Trying to make sense
Of how fast it all turned mean.
But if life has taught me something,
It’s I can’t force myself to be seen.

Cold as you were cruel,
You used the patriarchy against me.
The only difference this time around
I felt it all coming.

It’s just like an insecure man
To need such control.
Historically destroying lives around us,
Impressing each other Is clearly the goal.

Taking women, breaking them down
All to just feel big and free!
But surprise, *******
This time it ends with me.
