Blood from a stone
Darkened and clear
Falling
Flooding
Deep enough that you’re sinking in

Was it worth it to take it this far?
Was it?
Treading fully submerged
Signs of life begin to blur

Betrayed by motion
Time to sit and learn your place
Just accept who you are
Doesn’t set you apart

You’re in over your fucking head
Didn’t think this was the end

Cutting it short

A different ending
Out on my own terms
Wickedness that you can’t escape
A fallen god you can’t recreate

What can you praise
When your prayers won’t reach?
What can you praise?
Helpless and alone

Disdain ingrained
Death waits in my own hand

Misery they’ll never see ‘cause I’m playing God
My time
Has come and gone
No hope for innocence
Nothing to find in this emptiness
Keep your head down
No face to hold the disguise
I don’t know how to call this a life
Fuck

No warning
Not moving
No heartbeat
Now I’ve earned my new face
Recognized under godless grace
Bled dry
Nothing to squeeze
Die, die, die, die
