A God In Your Own Mind

Aw sweet boy you're never alone
You've got me to throw you a bone
Now be a dear and carve your wrists
A little Dog-tag for when you go amiss

Tattered tissue presents you this gift
Redened bracelets around your wrist
See you're special for I chose you
Now on the dais for the ribbon so blue

A final victory - No more defeat
Just kick the chair underneath your feet.
A paved red tunnel only for the brave
Just let go and step into your grave

This legacy where Red Flowers shine
Death'll add colour between your lines
Time won't know just who you are
But Death will know you by every scar

Drown; the monster
