Let me assure you, this is not an attack on your well-being
In-fact I hope you're feeling free and happy
But this execution was handled poorly
I hope for your sake that you don't feel as battered and empty as I do
The frigid exterior that you've displayed
I understand your need for it
Defense mechanisms, well played
See humanity wasn't supposed to fly
And we flew together
We almost touched the sun
But when it came time to land
You didn't even touchdown

The Death Of An Elite
02:28

A land forged in blood and slavery, cannot be the land of the free
The time is now and not around the corner
With a sinking humanity, we're all bound to drown
Raised to believe that we're the great elite
A new dawn is upon us, either rise or fall
This can only go so far, the people aren't small
Fueling the fires, while they sacrifice them all
For the sake of keeping order
An old dying dream
That's not sustainable, but blind and weak
They care not for you, or your family
Just a life of power, an era without peace

260 Now, Hell Later

The midst of the night consumes and devours the soul
Leaving only the haunting and decaying thoughts ,left with the sole purpose to constrict and destroy
A mirror appears in the narrow hallway
Revealing a face that brings comfort and joy
Only to fade and once again, left to roam the endless hallways
A state of ensues, collapsing a lung
Encasing the heart in a bed of thorns
A smile overwhelms me, from my own face, while the blood trickles down the lips
A bloodied grin, is better than nothing at all
An anxious breath is better than being choked
The ever-heavy presence of abandonment always follows
and sometimes the world can see it's hideous face
While you're being strung up, to have your insides exposed
For what love you have lost, is never returning
My heart drowns in a bed of thorns
