Poet Introduction
The world fell silent as she walked through. Absolutely breathtaking. She was beauty in the name.

If you want to
End your life
Take this blade
This severed knife
If you want to run away
Get on this horse
I'll take you today
I am the beginning
I'll be your end
Welcome to reckoning
I'll cut you down
I'll kill everyone you've ever known
And let your fascist God sort them out
And one by one the bricks will fall
As your world falls down around you
End your life
Take this blade
This severed knife
If you want to run away
Get on this horse
I'll take you today
I am the beginning
I'll be your end
Welcome to reckoning
I'll cut you down
I'll kill everyone you've ever known
And let your fascist God sort them out
And one by one the bricks will fall
As your world falls down around you

She cries herself to sleep
One finger
Two
She's feeling worse make it three
Down her throat
She's gotten used to the burning
The violent shaking erupts through her body
She felt hungry again
Always so hungry
To be beautiful
She knew the cost
She cries herself to sleep
When you look upon her face you see a ghost
Her cheeks are sharp
Her eyes are shadowed
Her hair is brittle and weak
Her nails are cracked
But she thinks she is beautiful
She cries herself to sleep
The food won't go down
She's...

30 years
In 30 years
You'll sleep late into the day
Your hair might start to grey
You're abs might fade away
Leaving a gut in that place
Your face might wrinkle and crack
Your legs might be weak
But one thing that won't change is my love for you
You'll sleep late into the day
Your hair might start to grey
You're abs might fade away
Leaving a gut in that place
Your face might wrinkle and crack
Your legs might be weak
But one thing that won't change is my love for you

Heil Nothing
Look at this
C'mon give it a kiss
Tell me why you changed
In the middle of our game
Cut 'em into bits
Till they ain't worth shit
I'm sick of this twisted lie
When I sit here just waiting to die
Is it an honourable death
When your fam is on your last breath
Tell me how it got so deep
The wound was theirs and mine to keep
Fight by tears or rage
And go back to the place you call home
C'mon give it a kiss
Tell me why you changed
In the middle of our game
Cut 'em into bits
Till they ain't worth shit
I'm sick of this twisted lie
When I sit here just waiting to die
Is it an honourable death
When your fam is on your last breath
Tell me how it got so deep
The wound was theirs and mine to keep
Fight by tears or rage
And go back to the place you call home

LOVE POEM

I wish
Misery was my veil
Storm clouds rolled over my parade
In a crowd of millions, she was still alone
Her name came out in a choked whisper
I grip her cold hand
Something flashes in her eyes, and dissapears just as quick as it came
I'm sorry
I tried so hard to let you be
I love you
She doesn't believe
I wish, she would leave his side
I stand here, in her shadow
Couldn't she see?
He didn't feel like that
She was trying too hard
I wish she would return to me
I wish, we could share those memories again
I...
