Inopportune Misconception


Inconvenient, am I?

Defiant to change
The world has abandoned me
Despondency of separation rots away the strength to go on
Cavities transposed upon my callused soul

Billowing hatred within me is gone
While I watch in mute revulsion
Stillness swallows me whole
Is this the way I am?

Sell my soul
To the demons inside
Deny my existence
For there's nothing to buy

I don't want to see
How little there is left
I don't want to see...
Deprive the lack of what's within me
Cover my eyes
Can you sew them shut?

Morose and solemn
I'm lagging behind
It's just the way I am
