Bad place



Slap me hard in the face
I'm in a bad place.

Bloodstains on me
Handprints from the rage that wrought me
the struggle that this life has brought me

Demonized

My tears are glass shards
That leave me red.

The streets are paved with hate and malice
I drink and drain this poison chalice
It fills my veins

To bring me back again

Slap me hard in the face
I need a taste

Of the pain I've inflicted
the life that I evicted; violently
They never lie silently

My tears are glass shards
That leave me red.

Where the daylight ends
And the night begins
I find myself here bound in sin.

Walking in streetlights
Streetlights

Walking in streetlights
