Rebirth
By Graveyard_Desciple
This mask begins to bear more weight
Accompanied by darkened fate
This broken piece has finally made it to the core.
I swore I had a tighter grip
But now I have to watch it slip
And with each day I wake, my eyes blacken some more
The more I fight, the more it feeds
I can apologize until I bleed,
But the words will fall into the void
I don’t know what I am anymore, but I know
I won’t stop clawing through this hell
I refuse to lose anymore of myself
Because since I’ve lost you, the light inside befell.
And now the candle meets the snuff
Because the light has had enough
And now I realize, in darkness we will bathe.
But to the urge, I won’t succumb
For once I don’t want to be numb
I deny this demon of its final taste.
I’ll win this fight, it will not feed
I no longer choose to bleed
From the ashes, I take on new life
I am not what I was anymore, and I know
I won’t stop clawing through this hell.
I refuse to lose anymore of myself
I may bear all these scars, but my soul is not for sale
