Stay Away

Feel my skin and find a restlessness Cut the rope and let me go Failed again it shows pure benevolence Show a sincerity sit and bestow Broken promises and slaughtered dreams Take my advice and stay away Brew the lessons I've seen in harsh extremes Began sweating again but it's a cold day Can't see if my ears continue to bleed I see too many good friends Just like a starving child I need to feed Rebirth is horrid and it transcends Living off of plants but not much I can do Lay back and let my tears glisten They broil with heinous hatreds black stew Fill the room with the devils ricin
