Forgotten Shadow
I’d breathe in one last time
I’d stand again and fight
I’d tell you what is right
But I’m the darkness in the light
I laughed the Devil’s prayer
I screamed that you should care
I made you look and stare
I whispered pain and blind despair
I’d help you if you’d die
I’d leave you if you’d cry
I’d screw you only if you try
I’ll make you suffer me
I’ll make you look and see
I’ll make sure you always bleed
I’ll make you fall, soon they’ll come to feed
I’d smile if I believed
I’d laugh as I feel relieved
But I know I’ve been deceived
There’s only torture and disease
I’d kill myself if I’d die
I’d leave this place if I’d cry
I just don’t care, been far too many tries
I’d hide my poisoned face
I’d breathe again if I’d waste
This pathetic, stupid, dying race
You keep me locked up in this place
Just pray that I do not escape
