Wasted Time, Borrowed Pain

Go

This is a confession
A truth to cleanse these veins so sallow
Scathing introspection
I drag my flaws now before the gallows

A coffin nail for each day
I burn myself in effigy

I only want the very best, the good, the true
But I have two halves so just split my fucking head in two

This is trial by life, so hand me the knife

With this blade of mine
I'll say goodbye
And cut away everything that decays my mind
Trace the line
Now it cannot hide
And amputate this hate that makes me dead inside

My wounded pride will not beget tragedy
No suicide by poison complacency
Anhedonia
These scars are mine
Will I rescind this rage?
Will it metastasize?

That scared little boy you knew he is long cold and fucking dead
I ate his fucking heart
I took his fucking head

With this blade of mine
I'll say goodbye
And cut away everything that decays my mind
Trace the line
Now it cannot hide
And amputate this hate that makes me dead inside

Won't let me
Be the death of me
Make me free
Drop the guillotine

I can never cure you if I am your disease
This is my valediction to being my own casualty

With this blade of mine
I'll say goodbye
And cut away everything that decays my mind
Trace the line
Now it cannot hide
And amputate this hate that makes me dead inside

So let each drop bleed
On my soul it feeds
Carve myself this smile through broken teeth
My Svengali
My hamartia
Your pulse is parasitic, vile passenger
