Judas In the Mirror
In darkened shadows
Focused on unsuspecting prey
Never would they see
Until venom filled their veins
Trapped in captivity
With no escape
Helpless and motionless
Their corpse mine to take
Freedom, a woven coffin
Breaths of air, a luxury
Fear is all that is left
Only fear and me
Patience is thin
The end will be soon
One step closer
As I make my move
But paralysis prohibits progress
All movement has ceased
And all of these walls
Cave in around me
Nowhere left to run
Nowhere left to hide
Trapped in my own prison
Reflecting inside
Enveloped in this grave I made
There is nothing left to bleed
All along the unsuspecting victim
Was me
