This Mere Man
this mere man
this mere man
sayd
what
cause
have you
to see through me
my blinding eyes
of
this
mystery
shapes that form
your lying eyes
an enigma
quite
traumatized
word to me
through
your
cracked
teeth
search from me
dig from
my
underneath
shatter on love hammer and nails
look at the cross as the blood impales
look at this breath creeping up on me
close your mind and you'll never see
that a love gone blind
cant be a heart
if
it
can't beat
drown drown drown
hear them approaching me
short
of
breath
we can barely see
oh my God won't you open my eyes
spent most my life clenched in this vice
lungs tied to filtered air i can't see
bitterness has grown its claws
in
me
lashing out pure misery
learn to drink
yeah
learn to drink
what sobriety it poses to be
ive found
in
the
light
what
others
can't see
only love lasts for eternity
siftn through this death
it has yet to bury me
under the blood nothing is broken
though our words
are too
often
over spoken
read through me
you will see who i am
beyond my simple depths
lays the flesh
of
this mere man
this mere man
this mere man
?
