Alone in Depravity While You Watch in Ecstasy

by Tripp   Jan 29, 2008


My heart becomes dark, my heart becomes cold
I'm clashing horns with depravity, a battle not old
Faced with the choice and stuck with a decision
I've faced physical mutilation and mental remission

I stand in the midst of the angst and the pain
you watch on in ecstasy, it's always the same
I stumble in exhaustion and fall to the floor
you just stand on watching, hoping for more

This empty husk of me, is all that remains
this worn out rotting shell still locked up in chains
locked in a fatal spiral, descending decadence
the departure of my soul, the exit of essence

I'm alone...outside my skull and inside my head
I'm alone...not really living but not yet dead
I'm alone...with just myself to follow me
I'm alone when I fall...
with just myself and me...

    Tripp, mirror reflection of reality.

    the only thing that is missing is an image of this event.

    hope never to see that image.
