Human Monsters
Human monsters created in my life this gore
And opened up this darkened door
That the demons all stream through
And I am mired in all this goo
Sticky memories of torture
Leaves me standing on the border
Of who I was and what they made me
Could someone hand me the key
So I could turn back the clock
And maybe this life of horror I could stop
Or maybe twist the hands of fate
That left me in this wretched state
The sands of time keep streaming
And the demons they keep screaming
And this charred heart keeps beating
And this life no longer holds meaning
So my throat, and wrist start bleeding
As I stand here on the brink
Inside my soul is starting to shrink
In the thick black tar I'm starting to sink
It's coal black as dark as ink
I'll be gone in just one blink
And opened up this darkened door
That the demons all stream through
And I am mired in all this goo
Sticky memories of torture
Leaves me standing on the border
Of who I was and what they made me
Could someone hand me the key
So I could turn back the clock
And maybe this life of horror I could stop
Or maybe twist the hands of fate
That left me in this wretched state
The sands of time keep streaming
And the demons they keep screaming
And this charred heart keeps beating
And this life no longer holds meaning
So my throat, and wrist start bleeding
As I stand here on the brink
Inside my soul is starting to shrink
In the thick black tar I'm starting to sink
It's coal black as dark as ink
I'll be gone in just one blink
