Broken Spirit Wings

By one-fanged vision

rusted nails slip from your crimson neive
as you quake on the cold tiles,
head resting on the wall of the sink
fool, must you not see the trap?
they've contaminated your mind
break free from the clutching hands of hell
the purity of laughter can soon soak your heart
if you allow the door to unlock
unleash the tension, it's all in your mind

Don't turn your head away
To think you deserve no happiness is self centered
What have you done to the world?
I want a detailed answer

"Because" does not work
You complain you have it bad
Yet you don't want pleasure
So what's the problem?

One more word from your mouth and I will break
Forget the past and seal your fate
Put down the blade and walk on
Step away before it's too late

I hate to break it to you
But you are not the only human existing
You have ditched me to molest my love
You have said to my face you do not care
If I die, it's my problem
You and your swollen veins
covered in scars
mean more than two eyes behind a shield of tears
the eyes of your nurturer
your safe keepings, a friend
Let us beg for your freedom
As we sink to the ground

Destroy my soul as you devour my life
Stop this shit
Take care of yourself
Try to think of us
We are falling as well
Need I remind, you are pushing us down

I tried to be patient
I wanted to help
You've only hurt me
And I wont stand it anymore

You think I'm a drama queen,
Dear me, I'm pitiful and weak
Does it boost your esteem knowing you are higher than me?
Do you not realize the rest of us bleed?
