Resistance
Righteously bleeding again
She killed me, she made me feel her pain
Alone and forgotten again
They kill me, now darkness knows my name
Crawling in shadow and lies
The whispers grow so loud that I cry
Lost in a puzzle, I sigh
I’m breathing the sickness of those that died
I wake in a bedroom of rust
Bloody, everything smells of mistrust
I stand in a pile of dust
I’m sinking, thinking of nothing but lust
I dance with my sickness again
She killed me, so I’ll do the same
My sight lost translation of blame
The mirrors, fear echoes my name
I riddle deception for you
Too bad I lost myself and the truth
My voice only whispers abuse
But in my silence I realise I must refuse
Resistance is fading with time
I must isolate myself and my mind
Resisting an evil through rhyme
Knowledge, I name the demon inside
Resisted the devil within
I’ve named him, but he can still win
Resisting the world wears me thin
But I’m still here, opening my eyes to begin
