Servants

Waste away
I've drug out these careless days
And dug a shallow grave, carved the tombstone with my name
Uninspired servitude, it’s not worth living
Have you ever thrown your life away into the sea?
Your goals and desires are drowned and erased
Drug by the hair through a never ending rut
My mind an empty shell
My body just a husk
I'm caught inside this paralyzing sleep
Lasting pain my misery will reap
Staring blank
Scroll along the feed
Pseudo-news, useless views
Distractions nonetheless
Failure, buried by the stress
I am trapped
Held down by my restraints
Shackled by the weight
Cannot penetrate
Through my hates embrace
On this fleeting day
Everything is prisoned in a way
I’m a servant by the hand of life’s cruel fate
The Warden baits that I can leave the gate
Then the restraints are pulled
In this perverted game
I’m a servant the end looks bleak
I'm caught inside this paralyzing sleep
Lasting pain my misery will reap
Nothing ever matters when
I’m still a servant to
The useless life I lead
Repetitiveness is key to this
Life’s perverted game
Forever oppressed in this
I am a servant despite
Attempts to seem like I am more Than a
I am a servant in this
I am a servant for life
I am a servant of spite
I am a servant
Slaving away inside this forgotten life
Nothing to remember depraving strife
I am slave inside this forgotten soul
I will not be remembered life took its toll
I am a body shackled to this decayed life
I am a plaything on a shelf outlived my worth
I am a subject to this waning life
I am a plaything on a shelf outlived my worth

Sleeve of Scars
07:24

Broken
My mind degrading
Psychosis aids with haunting silence
Nothing
No one to save me
Devoid of feeling
Always suffering
Longing
From mind to body
Swap out the pain to change the anguish
Steel blades kiss my veins
Feel my demons breaking me
Left in my depravity
I have no intent to be
Part of this society
Bloodshed over vanity
If the blind could only see
What this act has done to me
I must do something To satiate
My silent urges
Now I'm sleeping In my own blood
To satiate my bold fixation
As I carve my sleeve of scars
My blood the stench of scorn
Spilling anger as it pours
Slows down the growing cracks
Of my mind holding back
Therapeutic the only way
To bring my mind to a calm state
The cracks are growing grab the blade
Its my plaster of decency
The clutch of death against my flesh
My time draws near
The sleeve of scars Is lengthening
With another crooked notch
Empty my mind has faded
Nothing left now but destructive whispers
Torn skin ripped with the sharp blades
The only coping mechanism
Fading body degrading
In opposition to the pain I feel
Nothing left now end
End this suffering
The clutch of death against my flesh
My time draws near
The sleeve of scars Is lengthening
With another crooked notch
Add another add another
Add another notch
Add another add another
To my sleeve
I must do something
To satiate the blood lust
Now I'm sleeping In my own blood
To satiate my bold fixation
I must do something
To settle down the anger inside
Now I'm dying from my own hand
Add another notch
The clutch of death against my flesh
My time draws near
The sleeve of scars Is lengthening
With another crooked notch
Add another add another
Add another notch
Another notch
Another notch on my growing sleeve of scars

Cold

Lucid nightmares
They've brought my terrors to life
My screams, they're silenced
To make these visions thrive more
Ignorance is clouded
With this resentment and wine
I've turned myself into this absract
Portayal of malice
I swore I would dispatch this grim outlook on life
As you wreak havoc here
I've lost almost all of my will to keep
Pushing through this abandonment
The words we've sworn to stand by have lost almost all of their value
As you coat yourself in denial through your careless life
Don't try to save me while
While you can't learn to save yourself
Don't try to love me when
When you can't even love yourself
Don't try to save me while
While you can't learn to save yourself
Save yourself
Save yourself from your lasting grief as I
Save myself from my own self hatred and dejection
Save your words for this lust of heartache
The deception of our own feelings of grandeur
Save your words when you need to lust for meaning
Then your self-loathing will be a plea for a peace of mind
Cold and trapped
Drained and senseless
I've severed my link to the past that
I've shared with agony
I've come to terms that my time here is concluding and you'll
Know when I'm gone you'll think of me in disgust
Save your words for this
Lust of heartache
The deception of our own feelings of grandeur
Save your words when you need to lust for meaning
Then your self-loathing will be a
Plea for a peace of mind
Save yourself from your lasting grief as I
Save myself
Save myself

Silhouettes
08:04
|

Shadows, reflections of me
The person who I was before
Reflections of years that have passed
Before the downfall of my mind
Present day, times of distress
Anxiety of days to come
Depression, feelings of doom
Negative thoughts cursed to stay
Stranded, in this crowded cell
Silhouettes staring at me
Cold, detached from bliss
Existence now starting to fade
Perceptual decline
Oddities emerge
Questioning morality
What is real?
Caught in a grind; a depressive state of limbo
A shadow is hanging over me
Things don't seem like they've used to be
My feelings toward the world seemed to change
Familiar faces begin to blend
Their features now appear to be null
What was once a crowd of diverse entities
Are now a bland group of scum
Was it a thought, or a personal crisis?
That caused a change in my mind?
Has the world been spinning differently?
Or is everything still all the same?
Separate your thoughts from this realm
Behold the misery of this world
Don’t get caught chasing for a sign
That is not there
Rapture in my mind
Good days now behind
Take me away
Back when I was okay
I could remember back before now
Days seemed so full of life
But now I can't see what I saw
I no longer see the light
Days before had shined so bright
But now the sun no longer shines for me
And my mind gets caught up in the
Silhouettes (yelled twice)
-----------------------------------------------------------
Now my feelings have begun to fade
Apathy fuels the way I live
Selfishness is a way of life
When you have nothing else you can be
I care not for what you believe
Your existence means nothing to me
I'm a cadaver in a pile of anguish
And you are nothing more than the same
---------------------------------------------------
Silhouettes staring around hoping to be
Meaningful in such a mortal life
Seeking contentment in their survival
Some of them won't feel the joy
I before had lived with hope
I possessed the same thoughts as you
But as I fell down the rabbit hole
I met feelings of torment, suffering, agony
Rapture in my mind
Good days now behind
Take me away
Back when I was okay
I could remember back before now
Days seemed so full of life
But now I can't see what I saw
I no longer see the light
Days before had shined so bright
But the sun no longer shines for me
And my mind gets caught up in the
Silhouettes (yelled twice)
Go forth
And see
Shadows closing
Surrounding me
