Once upon a distant time in my past
Searching for my missing pieces
I’d looked in every single wrong place
Talking to myself about right and wrong
Justifying bad behaviors
Sitting alone in my own self pity and wallow
Willingly deciding to deceive myself
Fulfilling every selfish urge
Every time hating myself a lot more
Eternity is a long span
Knowingly facing hell and smiling
Apathetic and slowly dying
Going to extremes to feel aliveeee
Digging at myself and ripping open old scars
Laughing at myself and bleeding
Self fulfilling prophecy
Self inflicted self destruction
Never knowing the promise to me
I’ve since changed
Learning of all my wasted time
Hard lessons in the school of life reshaped me
I transformed from a carnal being into something much greater than me
No longer tormented by the hellscapes in my nightmares
No longer feeling dammmmmmned!
Once upon a distant time in my past
Searching for my missing pieces
I’d looked in every single wrong place
Talking to myself about right and wrong
Justifying bad behaviors
Now I’m no longer a stranger!
to heaven or hell!
Don’t take my word for it!
Just don’t try it!
Don’t try to live it!
Redemption can be pure at the end
You gotta suffer to earn
You gotta feel pain and torment
Then you can only truly understand ittttttttt!
If you saw the things I’d seen in these terrible dreams
That plaguedddddd meeeee!
That killlllllled meeeeee!
That destroyed me!
You’d be foolish not to grasp the hand of light and love to change as well!
Now I’m no longer a strangerrrrrrrr!
to heaven or hell!
Don’t take my word forrrrrr it!
Just don’t try it!
Don’t try to liveeeee it!
