look at all this f***ery
this hell that's passed
from you to me
you're full of s***
my horse's bit
that causes my gums to bleed
the angst you cause
like lions jaws
that clamp down on my wrist

your siren song
was my lullaby
you sang of stunning
bright, new skies
I trusted you
I fell asleep
but I awoke to mist
in the midst of the view
you swore I'd enjoy
the only thing visible
was your ploy

so I wandered
through the fog
the sticky heat
the grimy fog
eventually I found
my own sun
I realized that
you hadn't won
you hate me now
though, I don't see why
when I left you acted
quite surprised
did you think I enjoyed
bearing the tree?
I was stapled to your cross
you were the raven
that tortured me
but now I've reached
the dark that's lit
and I'm so f***ing glad
you're not part of it
