The Inkblots of Death
By Crashoverride
I don't even know you
And it really doesn't matter
For I am just an ignorant child
Looking to feel flattered
It's all about me but I hate it
I hate the process as well as the self it's directed at
I don't think I'm not good enough
I know it
And every moment I'm alive I show it
Tattoo it on the front of my head
So that everyone can see
Maybe then I'll wake up the dead
I just wish to matter to something that will stay in my heart
The sum of all things is only something falling apart
That's what things do
They die
While I walk forever
Without looking at the time
I wish that I could open myself up just to show you what's inside
Some try to do it with the razor blades to stop the pain
I choose the needles and ink and I'm not ashamed
For who I am is not who I'm destined to be
As I once saw in the wall of that tank
I know as I have before, one day I will release and be free
