The Madness

Trapped within my mind which is a state of perpetual madness With every passing second ever increasing my hunger for sadness As the clock ticks, time wastes away Decay sets in as though it is just another day The smells translate what my life is to be Death is the forcefield that encapsulates me I was fashioned at birth, I was formed in my mothers womb Only to aimlessly wander the earth, what has been an endless tomb questioning why I was created, not understanding why I am here When so much of my life is motivated by pain, anger, and fear Yet rage remains relentless, as my scares soon will tell My days of existence are a physical hell Each breath breeds anger, even with eyes closed I find no peace The more I am around people, the more I awaken the beast Set to devour those who cross me, to peel their flesh from their bones Now that I have severed your carotid you will never return home I question if they will miss you, I question who really cries What a surprise awaits them when they open the present of your harvested eyes For a moment they will see into the empty windows of your soul My rage feeds my body yet my insanity is in control I try to shackle my inner demons, they're too strong they escape Imagine your scariest nightmare, there I am, I'm your fate
