Take My Everything

Take my eyes,
So that I will be only able to hear the lies you spread!
Take my ears,
So that I will be able to only taste the corruption that you live by!
Take my hands,
Leave me defenseless to your masquerade of pointless attacks!
Take my legs,
So that I won't be able to escape this endless fall destiny has bestowed upon me!

Take my essence,
So that someone will find use for it.
Take my heart,
And ensure someone in need is given a better one.
Take my soul,
So that I may finally, be at rest.

Be at rest,
My mind, be put at ease,
My body, be put to sleep,
My soul, however is mine to keep.

Take me, to my resting chambers
For I have waited for this,
So long, since I was so young.
How long must i endure this pointless suffering?

How long must I see,
The vile creatures that lays waste to our very life
Creatures known as man killing ourselves for plunder?
Is there no end to this inevitable battle?

No, there is no end, for there was a beginning without such a thing.
Ensnare my soul, rip it from me,
Lay me to rest!

Forever...
