The Dreamless Sleep of Self Loathing
" From the world of darkness I did loose demons and devils in the power of scorpions to torment " Charles Manson
" In Sleep we lie all naked and alone, in Sleep we are united at the heart of night and darkness, and we are strange and beautiful asleep; for we are dying the darkness and we know no death. " Thomas Wolfe
Buried in ashes up to my face
Gaze into the mirror and see a disgrace
The embers of something dead, decaying in the wind
Reflect true undying, and the birth of newfound sin
Vices have consumed me like fires of destruction
No one to blame for this suffering, was my own construction
I see the demons staring back at me, laughing with their jeers
While I exhibit such self-loathing, my enemies shout with cheer
I envision nothing
No reality
Nothing is sacred to me
Falling through the cracks
Broke my mother's back
God please.....give her back to me
Sleepless wandering.....oasis of no belief
Desecrate thyself in the cradled arms of self sacrifice
Torment is agony, clandestine and lethal
All I see is black, no more twisted grey
When you no longer have a soul
There is no need to pray
It's simple in conclusion, your the hunter or the hunted
The killer or the victim, the savage or the prey
My blood begins to boil as my fists begin to clench
I hear the snapping of your jaw as my hands begin to wrench
Hate has taken root instead in the hollows of my soul
Inside every painful memory no one can stitch such a hole
I envision nothing
No reality
Nothing is sacred to me
Falling through the cracks
Broke my mother's back
God please.....give her back to me
Dragged through the mud my complexion is dark and vain
Efforts to abandon me are dangerous waters indeed
Afterlife on the ghost train remember my creed
Devoid of feelings that filter out poison in my blood
