Self Denial

I live within the black that hides within my eyes
Living each day to die a little more 
Hate the thing i have become
and becoming less than the some
Feeling the surface
and knowing there is no depth
Convince my convictions to conceive
Sift the self through a single grain
And hide inside the brain
that give itself its name
The loser is lost
and humanity my shadow ghost
