Back and forth like playing tag
Passing on the pain I've had
Limits blown lost brain gone mad
Guess death row time ain't so bad
Pressure flows in veins I had
Life was nothing but a fad
I'll take the blame
But with no shame
Damn it all only a game
Heaven hell it's all the same
Both just want to claim my name
Keep me tame keep me lame
Forgetting from which where we came
My empty shell needs release
Desperation on a leash
End of the line maybe see peace
Across all time into the sea
Of me and me and only me
Sweet relief you don't agree
My creed my seed my one belief
We bear the burden but I know
This cross I hold is all I own
Cannot unsee what you're shown
What I reap is what I sew
Till devil dies and begs for mo
Cripple pride so you can't deny
There's only one real right to ride
Beneath the surface of the lie
Beneath the limits of my mind
My pretend end out of my sight
I cry I fly into the light
I've learned to not put up a fight
When heat waves dim into the night
No matter which way I see
Joke always seems to be on me
Funny concept of suffering
Cannot handle what I need
Time is money what I bleed
Killing time until I'm free
Don't spend too long in her nest
You might just end up like the rest
Look to the night moon with a crest
Disturbing feeling in my chest
Am I a leech am I a pest
Or is this game only a test
Demon demon end in semen
Temporary death I'm feelin
Catch a breathe slowly to reel in
Jesus fish and get to peelin
I'm only stealing I'm only healing
My ego up above the ceiling
When it dies I might see hope
Still a crime still up in smoke
Had it all but now I'm broke
I'd take it back if I wouldn't choke
So hard while hanging from the rope
Missed this Christmas chance to fist bliss
Dismissed wish list rinse down with piss
Check my style I'm just a file
You're in denial light bringer's trial
Been on last mile for a while
Empty vial contains my smile
Crash my head with white stained red
Flesh to bread gold into lead
Enter truth already dead
Inside outside cage we shed
Nothing to fear already here
Already here rotating years
Constant cycle in between
Circles of reality
Simple symptom of nothing
Paradox loops into me
