Torture

Whispers in my head I hear it all so clearly 
Negativity in my brain bordering on weary 
Enemy caught me when I was very weak 
Tortured me for the treasure that they sought to seek 
Vigil I remained though I admit that they were close 
To destroying what I had that was saving me the most 
Then I remember in that moment that I am stronger than I think 
So I started focusing on the other side of the chain link 
It keeps me strong it keeps me sane
It keeps me going it keeps me trained 
And so the enemy caught me but I got out of their trap
Now I know where they're hiding I got them marked on my map
You'd think that I'd call out the troops and take them by seige 
Arrest them detain them and make them my liege 
Treat them like dirt torture and maim
Paybacks a  and all for my pain
But thats not how I roll for if I did I'd be them
Blood on my hands brazen in sin.
