alcides

Slide, barrel, firing My life expiring Carve peace into a bullet so its the last thing on my mind 'Cause what remains in the sky is our stars misaligned The shrapnel from the meplat dissects my insides My emotional integrity, treat like it was Alcides I submit to you my mag of hatred You load your gun and leave me berated The echoes of metallic disparage on the concrete Discard the magazine, rest it on my grave and replete Disengage the safety, make your grip pirouette In my mind you're already dead, your ballade des Your body slumps, no longer recepts, self-sabotaged The thoughts of us never escaped your mind, constantly collaged
