Poisonous minds corrupt

Those within reach

Innocent souls moulded by complete

Misery

I am alone

Watching it all unfold

An absence of faith yet I can‘t

Remove these shackles from

My throat



They will creep into

Your thoughts

Deconstruct your moral code

They will bend and they will break

Every law to feed their cause

Bleeding you dry leaving

Nothing behind

So they can march to the

Dying heartbeat



Cowards and fiends align

Reshaped, transmogrified

Noose tied

Bound hands and feet

Coveted eyes to ultimately deceive

I‘m coming undone

Splitting at the seems

The blindfold so tight

Around your ears

It drowns out a

Thousand fucking screams



They will creep into

Your thoughts

Rip apart your values

Offering the sacrificial lamb

To appease your fellow man



How many times can you

Take the strain

Return to your feet

Endure it all again

Blessed with the honesty

Of a thief

I‘m waiting

How many times can you

Lie through your teeth

To be human is to sin

And in death is honour

For all men



Closed eyes see past the

Misguiding light

Take a breath to absorb

The darkness in life



Pulling in two directions

Two minds yield unto corruption

How many times can you

Take the strain

Return to your feet

Endure it all again

Blessed with the honesty

Of a thief

I‘m waiting

How many times can you

Lie through your teeth

To be human is to sin

And in death is honour

For no man
