Overcoming Bitter Life

In your eyes reveal inner madness turning this life into nothingness.

Just an empty hole where lost souls gaze back behind a wall they cannot break.

I only wish I could find the exit to escape the fear that i take.

Grasping the blade I hold these veins under its edge.

Death begins calling I'm beginning to fall from the ledge.

Breaking and trying to hide the scars I have made.

My heart has broken where my soul will forever fade.

Turmoil boils inside and my skin begins to peel from the flesh.

The inner life within myself turns to nothing but mesh.

Crumbling my heart breaks into cries. Screaming for forgiveness from the world it lies.

The light has disappeared now and a nightmare begins to play.

Trying to find an exit the fear grows stronger every day.

Soon this nightmare becomes the rest of life.

The only way to escape its clutch is ending this mending strife.

Stillness crawls like the dust that fills the air.

It grows thick as butter and is all a reckoning lingering without care.

And as I break into madness and release this wretched pain.

My blood spills to the floor where my body has been slain.
