Cleansing of a Former Life

it's in my head screaming "shut it down, burn it now!" it's in my hands screaming "do it already, your hearts too heavy!" it's in my blood screaming "cut away the past, it's vile and it's crass!" it's in my heart screaming "let it trickle, this pain is fickle!" it's in my gut screaming "the time has come, now you're completely numb!" giving in... body and mind... to the flow of self-loathing that's easy to find... release of life... soul and heart... taking a bow, i played my part.
