Resistance

Righteously bleeding again She killed me, she made me feel her pain Alone and forgotten again They kill me, now darkness knows my name Crawling in shadow and lies The whispers grow so loud that I cry Lost in a puzzle, I sigh I’m breathing the sickness of those that died I wake in a bedroom of rust Bloody, everything smells of mistrust I stand in a pile of dust I’m sinking, thinking of nothing but lust I dance with my sickness again She killed me, so I’ll do the same My sight lost translation of blame The mirrors, fear echoes my name I riddle deception for you Too bad I lost myself and the truth My voice only whispers abuse But in my silence I realise I must refuse Resistance is fading with time I must isolate myself and my mind Resisting an evil through rhyme Knowledge, I name the demon inside Resisted the devil within I’ve named him, but he can still win Resisting the world wears me thin But I’m still here, opening my eyes to begin
