As the water trickles
Down my grinning face
I take a grand view
Of this unruly place

The art of hate
Pierces through my skin
And I pray every night
That it will someday win

This is the pain
That allows me to feel
The devoured thoughts
Which make up my next meal

I got a desperate craving
To put everything to rest
And I can only achieve this
Through death

Because when I breathe
Through the grass
I know my dreariness
Will no longer last
