Never mattered

By kenneth

Within myself theres a monster roaring
And within the mirror I am weeping
But I, I feel nothing

I cant seem to understand
The trembling in my hand
And the puddle of blood where I stand

The demon said do at your own accord
But I, I search for the lord
While I grasp my sword

The demon said I will die
But I, I reach up to the sky
A lonely tear in my eye

A fist grips my heart tightly
I feel so lowly
No one can save me

I would pay any toll
To set free my soul
From the demons control

I’m sorry that I lied
What was good has died
For that the mirror cried

I watched as the mirror shattered
The demon made sure the pieces scattered
I truly believed it never mattered

Within myself theres a monster roaring
The broken fragments of the mirror are not weeping
I could care less cause I, I feel nothing

I don’t care to understand
The trembling that was once in my hand
Or even the puddle of blood where I stand

The demon said do at your own accord
I have given up on my search for the lord
But I, I still grasp my sword

The demon once said that I will die
I don’t remember the last time I reached up to the sky
I have not a tear in my eye

A fist grips my heart ever so tightly
I know within I am lowly
And I wont let you save me

I said that I would pay any toll
If you could set free my soul
From my inner demons control

I’m not sorry that I lied
What was good has died
For that no one cried

We watched as the mirror shattered
Me and the demon made sure the pieces scattered
I truly believed it never mattered
