Character.-

Peel apart my fingertips
To replicate the atoms
Split the misplaced molecules
And spread them
up and at ‘em

Ill prove them wrong
When I destroy the energy
for good
Create it all from scratch
Just to show you that I could

Now..I would take it easy on you
but I lost the option
When my bark turned to bite
I burned down the ark
When the fright
Turned to spite
So I disregard the necessary
Fight for human life

Every last breath
That I’ll have to steal
Will be accompanied by
The idea of
how I don’t see the appeal
Of continuing on
This nonsense
The concept
Of loving oneself and the world
Is ridiculous

In the cynic’s grip again
I find myself here
Frequent and often
Corrupted,
My mind made a scapegoat
Mirror imaged punching bag
Always taught to go for the throat

Stun your enemy
In this case its me
Complicated and berated
Constantly,
I live in this mood
Comfortably
Numb myself out
Frequently

Begging for company
in the arms of miss misery
Misled to believe that I could ever
Be anything more than okay

Finding out that I have to
 fight myself and the world on this
Everyday
Much to my dismay
The clouds they always break
The light it shines through, but I’m still doomed to still feel this way

"Holy misery
i want you to make it
to make it sing
you leave and you lie and you sleep
lay it out for all to see
oh you lonely little fantasy"



Character. -

Watch me
Sharpen all the nails
Just to place them in the coffin
game of disease
I’ll kill them with the coughing’

Dancing on eggshells
biting my. tongue
First to draw blood
Is the first to get stung

Walking on the backs of camels
with straw sandals
you know how the public
loves their scandals

Front page disaster
Ill be your pusher
You know it taste good
When you see the reporter

How bad’s the damage
whats the death toll
Did the family manage
To save the child’s soul?

Better luck next time..
Death is unbiased
Chaos invited
Don’t know what the rhyme is
Got no reason
Consistent through the seasons
Can I get a witness
to carbon based treason?

I know what you want
I know what you need
You want to see your neighbor
Fall to their knees
Begging please
in the form of a story
You want to feel scared
While your holed up in your glory

So you can be thankful
Yeah, be grateful
That its not you
That the stretcher came to pull

nothing learned from it
You’re bored already
You want another hit
Who’s got some more trauma
On the ready?

Yeah I know you like that
A sick world is
Where you lay your head at

Violence is good
Violence is great
As long as its not mine
thats on that plate
but you stay hungry
I can hear your stomach rumble
Indulge in the fine dish
of a local man’s crumble

Now heres an appetizer
A quick cute distraction
A little bit of crime
Before our main attractions

I’ll grab the nice china
So we can dig in
To the coup de grace
