Galvanized
Inert by the hurt
In my brain it drives me insane
This carnal rage with lust respite,
Hanging on to life with hands of sleight
Caught in the middle nothing real feels right
It might be drugs so take a pass
No its not that easy aloof, alone, alas...
Left bewildered, confused, misunderstood and broken
To sinking deeper into muddy waters, sullen
This open wound has formed a cyst
Why do you insist on this you pessimist?
It's not my fault stop pointing back. ("Ok, persist")
And why do you always fold when you should play the hand?
It's not too hard to go all in just slam it like a man
Your time is up I'm through with it I've really got to go.
I hope you love the life you chose
I'll make sure to leave a rose.
