I wake up to a world
That itemizes me
It makes me less human
I am just a mere tool
For this satisfaction
My body is a burden I was born with

Sink and Swim

I sink and I sink and I sink
Emotions are flooding
The tide is now rising
It's breaking my levy
I feel an uprising
It starts to take me
A darkness surrounds me
I feel so heavy
I know that I'm downing
But I am the shadows
I know all these hollows
I no longer need the
Lies of the shallows
Fight my own illness
Choke my sadness
I save myself
From my own darkness
And I swim and I swim and I swim

Tethered

I'm tethered to my past
My torment seems to last
I'm bounded to my hate
And I can't escape my fate
Though I have tried to run away
I am too afraid
This rope is all I know
All I do is cope
Tie it up
Nice and tight
Keep that knot
Out of sight
No one knows
Of my rope
In the end
I barely cope

I was just a kid
When you decided to play
But those games were never fun
Give me nightmares to this day
You fucking demon
How dare you ever touch me
I was just a kid
When you corrupted my body
They say hell ain't real
They say the devils a fake
They say hell ain't real
They say the devils a fake

Crimes Against our Youth

Crimes against our youth
They hide the pain, the truth
Crimes against our youth
Nameless, jailed, accused
You take away their name
Make sure they have no face
Either in prison or dead
It's just a means to an end
Crimes against our youth
They hide the pain, the truth
Crimes against our youth
Nameless, jailed accused

Mirrored

Everyday I'm scared to look
More and more
Like you
Cover the mirror
Don't dare to look
Knowing my fears have come true
Scornful look with empty eyes
My anger slips to no surprise
Everyday I try to fight
My inner demons and all their might
