Rotten Apple

So on I run Confidence unwavering So on I run Holding on A path I tread Lined with friendly corpses A path I tread Running on A soothing song Lullaby I've grown to live for A soothing song Singing on Eternal peace Goal I strive to live for Eternal peace Dreaming on A betrayal Reaching through the pieces A betrayal Fighting on Like I'm looking underwater The shifting views are so surreal Sweet flesh of this rotten apple Corruption that I feel The words that I Constantly release The words that I Hang on So come along Judas lives within me So come along Come on Like I'm breathing underwater Lungs burning for relief Sweet flesh of this rotten apple That I pluck from its nascent leaf The cruel ways Human act of kindness The cruel ways Live on A labored breath Rapid stuttered intake A labored breath Breathe on Like I'm dying underwater My flesh is stripped from the bone Sweet flesh of this rotten apple Taking my life all alone
