Burning Structures
Achieve more than ever believed
newfound respect you’ll receive
the mock become your flock
admiration in their shock
ignored you when you contact
now instantly they'll get back
were always looking to show you up
used to say try to suck less
now they look to show you off
in awe of your success
If you hide In shadows
enjoying my dark days
laugh me a saddo
enjoying my heart ache
jump a bandwagon
disloyal and farce mate
a lack of compassion
Unconcern my starved state
partly enjoying my misery
small incident from our history
been waiting for what you see
blind notice pain reality
Say I need to be stronger
though I surge at my strongest
and still it goes on longer
don’t encourage me contest
suggestions my weakness
and how you could beat this
all the while I sleep much less
your ego weak too resist
Then you walk the bridge as it burn
build no replacement, walk no return
no longer is there a respect to earn
you show me a lesson, one I learn
