You bring me out the worst in me
Murdered my hope, I’m your accessory
Gashes from my past, you fit them like a key
Unlocking all the hidden fears I thought I rid from me
Rewrite my personality
Tell me what you want
I'm haunted by the ghost
Of the girl I thought I was
Quench your self hate with my blood
Sate your anger by my rape
Siege the palace of my mind
Inscribed with curses you berate
Your smiling like a sickle
Call me sweet Persephone
Break my ankles, bind my feet
So there is no escape for me
Don't ask me who I am
Don't ask me what I like
Just let me say all the ways I can be used
Yours to do with as you like
Keep me locked inside the cellar
Kept away from eyes to see
The ruin and the rape
Of all that once belonged to me
Rewrite my personality
Tell me what you want
I'm haunted by the ghost
Of the girl I thought I was
Don't ask me who I am
Don't ask me what I like
Just let me say all the ways I can be used up
Yours to do with as you like
Sick from all the “love”, your affection’s triggering
I’m septic from the strain of our soiled memories

By your hand I was lead astray
Now I seem to have found my way
A kinder spirit guides me today
But only I can break the chains
Found solace in your bottle
Your words have gone hollow
You’ll leave but I won’t follow
Here today and gone tomorrow
Found solace in your bottle
Your words have gone hollow
My hurt pride’s something I won’t swallow
You’ll leave but I won’t follow
No one comes for you
Most others need saving too
No one can come save you
Yourself can see you through
All those lost years
Where does the pain go
How will I heal
How could you know?
Thought you were someone
I could depend on
You showed yourself now
It’s time to move on
No one comes for you
Most others need saving too
No one can come save you
Yourself can see you through

Execution Day
03:35

|
The thread’s been cut, the killing blow,
His ruthless axe
Your blood on the snow
The stains of life
They paint my woes
The acrid smell
On death I choke
On borrowed grace
I walk alone
Forlorn, displaced
My mind evading hope
The sunken place
That swallows whole
Those lost in pain
Afraid to grow
