Nothing

There’s nothing left to really say
My heart was forced to tear away
The desperation in my mind
The desperation that I find
I thought the cure would help me breathe
But in this world there’s no reprieve
The poison that I fed to me
This disease becoming me
Just kill it now before I speak
Just kill me now before you’re weak
The enemy that’s in my head
The enemy that wants me dead
I hear it now it comes to steal
Take from me what I can feel
The darkening will take my eyes
Bleed me whilst I’m filled with lies
There’s nothing left I can deny
There’s nothing now but spent up highs
I am infected with this life
I am infected with this sight
Dying only makes it worse
The rituals of friendly curse
Despair can only kill my vain
Kamikaze and some rain
Words that I can see are dust
Words I breathe that come from lust
Mind and matter re-align
Find and scatter I resign
I’m dead I know but so are you
Screw this life and screw you too
