Run

Torn from inside and cast into flame

Burnt at birth and baptised in pain

Claw through some semblance

Some version of what should be done

I cannot face this

This never should have begun

Light up

Light up

As if you have a choice

It’s funny how some things never let us go

Or maybe just tragic?

Maybe its all just for show

My cracked and blistered feet

Take baby steps all the way

Bloodied tears and permanent fears

Shredded scars all here to stay

Even if you cannot hear my voice

I am right beside you dear

Sometimes I get taken aback

By just how much I hate you

By just how much I want to hurt

To cast you out and desert you

To call the titans from the sky

And drive a stake through your heart

To desecrate all that you are

To end that what you had no right to start

Louder louder

And we'll run for our lives

I am sculpted by your heresy

Trussed up by your tragedy

Defined by your depravity

Given substance by your animosity

Chained by your rejection

Falsified by your projection

Beaten by your derision

Still you never see me cry

I can hardly speak I understand

Why you can't raise your voice to say

The wheel of time will always turn

And I will always disappear

Feathers fall from broken wings

Your spectre always near

I cannot be you

However much you beg

I will always disappoint you

And one day, this might end
