Oh god
I think they’re all dead
I felt an otherworldly bang and then it all went black
Dear god
What will be waiting for me
I have been fighting for my life
Lights out
White smoke everywhere
It filled my lungs and suddenly I couldn’t see or hear
Overwhelming all of my senses
Incendiary intravenous extensions
White hot creeping through all my extremities
I fear that I’ve lost control
I am no longer in control of my body or mind
Something else is pulling at all of my strings
I seem to have lost all control over sensations now invading my body
Something has awoken in me, rising upward, spreading out, ever taking hold of me
I am becoming something semi human
Something taking hold of all my senses
I scream until my lungs burst
I tear at my throat until the blood flows forth
There must be some way to stop this awful pain that I feel over every inch of my existence
Blades dance across my skin as I carve away at the layers of agony
Ripping flaying get it off me oh god
I will not persist under the weight of all of this
As I can feel my bones splintering
My body is shaking
My muscles are aching
I swear I can feel the hands on my neck
I don’t know what is happening to me
Why can’t anyone help me
I think I’ve lost control over sensations now invading my body
Something has awoken in me, spreading out ever taking hold of me
I have become something that is not human
Something unknown takes hold of my senses

We are a product of this madness
Pointing fingers at a world that failed us
From behind these walls
Isolated slowly I begin to understand I am the sickness
I am toxicity
The sickness
Heart so hollow
I am, I was, I will always be the source of the disease
Everything I touch will be doomed to rust
Everything I love will suffer
Isolated slowly I begin to understand I am the sickness
I am, I was, and I will always be the very source of the disease
This will always be a part of me
Consumed by misery eternally
I feel contagion as it sinks deeper into my mind
Sending signals through fingers wrapping around my spine
There is no alleviation
Just a momentary loss of sensation
Only temporary distraction
As the chemicals complete their reaction
I will always be the source of disease
Born to live and die alone, empty
Life is killing me
I’m losing all of me
I’m losing everything
I blame myself
I’m losing everything
Everything I touch doomed to rust
I’m losing all of me
I’m losing everything
I blame myself
I ruined everything
Everything I love will suffer
I’m losing all of me
I’m losing everything

As the knife slowly turns and all of the hope has been forgotten
I will descend on blackened wings
Through the ash and the smoke
Unearthly cries ring out through the night skies
Shattering any illusion of safety
All these souls are doomed
I can feel the hands tightening around my neck
I just can’t keep changing direction
I can feel the noose as it tightens it’s grip
I can feel my time running through my fingers
I have to inflict suffering
But I swear my hand has been manipulated
Something seeking my indecision
And grabbing it by the throat
All I could see was a hooded figure
A wraith without a face or a soul
I felt the need to separate me from the very things once keeping me sane
I felt the soul being ripped from my body
I looked on as it took control
I watched as it ripped out of me everything I used to be and cast it to an inescapable hole
I know I have to make them suffer
I know my destiny is to inflict suffering
I’ve been trying to find the path back to that place I know I’ve seen in my mind
We’ve been searching just to find a place where we belong
Fighting this war each and every day
With all of these demons that I have to slay
It feels like the world has come crashing down all around my ears
Still fighting this war each and every day
With all of the demons that stand in my way
It feels like the world has come crashing down all around my ears

I am in the same hell
Only different devils
Once it was a cross to bear
Now a part of who I am
Fighting tooth and nail
Ever doomed to fail
I can’t see my enemies
But I feel them inside of me
I’ve been beaten, broken, left with nothing, left to rot
I should’ve sank all the way down
I should’ve gone under
There is no escape and
There is no relief when
Every single second is a fucking war
Demons
Ripping me
Into
Nothingness
Demons ripping me into oblivion
Demons rip me into nothingness
Warm blood streaming from the rotting hole in my chest
The shredding muscle and snapping bone
Reaping hatred from the seeds I have sown
You came upon a broken wretch of a man
Summoning suffering you’ll never understand
Shredding muscle and snapping bone
Poisoning everything with thorns that you’ve grown
We were the toxicity
I can’t see my enemies
But I feel them inside of me
You had a hunger to keep pushing for more
But there is no escape when every single second is a fucking war
I should’ve sank all the way down
And made a home at the bottom
I should’ve gone under
I feel at home in the depths
I should’ve sank all the way down
I should have remained
I never should’ve gotten back up
I know who you are
I know where you’ve been
I know what you’ve seen
I know what you did
I hope you’re crushed under the weight of your sin
I know exactly who you are, I know exactly where you’ve been
The tongue and teeth of the rabid wolf
They will grind and break until the marrow’s exposed
I had descended to hell
But you came in and you stole my whole existence as well
You burned and you betrayed and you decayed me to the core
I’ve lost everything but still I fucking ache for more

Spiraling

Flat on my back with my eyes to the sky
Nothing could ever fill the hole that was left in me
I can’t forget the day that you drifted away
I can’t escape the feeling I have, the guilt I harbor deep inside of my mind that I could’ve done something more for you
I should’ve been around but I was digging a grave for my hopes and dreams
Flat on my back with my eyes to the sky
I reflect on how I got here
My head is spinning
And I can’t seem to recollect
My feet dug trails in the dirt
For miles and miles in every direction
My sense of purpose spiraling
As am I
I can’t
My body’s given up on me, extremities are shaking
I wasn’t there, I should’ve been, I’m not a mountain but a man
Bow down before impending doom, inescapable and absolute
I will not forget the day that all your light faded away
I don’t know how to let you go
(I won’t, forget, forgive, I can’t,
My hands, my legs, gave up, on me
These things, that eat away, at me
I will never escape this pain)
I never claimed to be a mountain
I am only a man
And if you lean on me for too long
I won’t be able to stand
With all this weight bearing down on me
Time becoming eternity
I’ve been kneeling beside your grave
Why can’t I feel you here with me
I never claimed to be a mountain
I am only a man
You were ripped
Away from this life
so violently it made my chest cave in
I don’t know if I can stand
Another single second more of this
Without your light in my life
I swear I hate it here without you
