if blood is spilt and human parasites will follow


I’m in pain.
My brain dissolved.
I’m insane.
Nothings resolved.

Because I will always know something has gone wrong.
Maybe I have waited way to long.
One day I was thinking.
I just stood there without blinking.

I have asked myself a real good question.
What did I do to deserve misery?
I think I have learned my lesson.
Well it doesn’t look that way to me.

I never stand up to anyone.
I have always pushed myself around.
It is over and done.
I should have burned myself to the ground.
When I tried to save myself again.
I didn’t make a sound.
There is a happy place I can’t get in.
I should just burn it to the ground.

I’m gone.
I can’t breathe.
I don’t belong.
I still can’t believe

Because I can only watch my own body wash ashore.
I can’t take it anymore.
I’m going to leave it all behind.
But I need more than time.

Some say I’ve gone way too far.
I still think I haven’t gone far enough today.
But a night there is a star.
That’s all I will say.

I never stand up to anyone.
I have always pushed myself around.
It is over and done.
I should have burned myself to the ground.
When I tried to save myself again.
I didn’t make a sound.
There is a happy place I can’t get in.
I should just burn it to the ground.

I’m done.
I can’t see.
I haven’t won.
Don’t look at me.

How long will I lose control?
Of my own life as I dig my hole.
It is getting deeper.
Death is a silent creeper.

Does this look good to you?
Well I’m faking on the outside.
The best I can isn’t true.
On the inside I died.

I never stand up to anyone.
I have always pushed myself around.
It is over and done.
I should have burned myself to the ground.
When I tried to save myself again.
I didn’t make a sound.
There is a happy place I can’t get in.
I should just burn it to the ground.

I never stand up to anyone.

I should just burn it to the ground.
