[ NaPo 2017 ] Afterthoughts Of An Incomplete Soul
I'm usually lacking in profound things to say
No surprise; I'm an incomplete soul
an afterthought at the end of the day
You get what you paid for
This product you stole
[throat scream]
NOTHING MORE THAN AN EMPTY BLACK HOLE
[/throat scream]
Why
am I
not more "I"
than I should be?
Lost in a crowd of us, our, they, them, we
I would take it as insult
that there's something wrong with me
but that would mean
there wasn't anything
wrong with
YOU, THE ONE IN CONTROL
HEAVENLY HOLIER THAN THOU ASSHOLE
I AM SATAN, HEAR ME ROAR!
YOU SHALL KNOW ME FOREVER MORE
IN YOUR DARKEST DAYDREAMS
EARTHLY LIFE UNRAVELING AT THE SEAMS
A SUCCESSION OF SCREAMS
THAT WON'T ESCAPE YOUR THROAT
I resign to being
what you loathe and fear
everything wrong in the world
Scapegoat of the Millennium
Toss into the black hole I am
all that you wish not to be
absolved of
your sins
inability to love
Go ahead
Blame it all on me
You bastards up above
