Don't hold on to anything
Time will rip it away
The bleeding hands begging for connection
Dead skin and pain the only reminder
The scars that harden my soul
Have reinvented my stance
When I look in the mirror
The reflection I see is jagged and blurred
Too long now I've been attached
So take these pieces of my shattered dreams
And rake them across my wrist
As I watch my existence drain away
I can taste my own blood
Haunted by my regret
Turned stoned by hope's demise
I only live for my own death
There are no cracks in my armor
Yet I rot from the inside out
Hating everything that I've become
Too much bitterness lies within
No peace until I die
So alone I remain
A victim of my callousness
The murder of my very soul
Forced by my own hand
The disgust of regret
The determination to obliterate it all
Let the pain be my salvation
And embrace the desire
To cut and tear and rip and slash and stab and kill and fucking destroy
Trapped in an unending hell
My world belongs in a grave
Take this pain and bury it six feet deep
Nothing is left of me
I can only hold on so long
Cold and empty; sick inside
I failed looking for my own release
No escape from a tortured past
Hopeless I realize
Life is hostile
