Thief of life

Your body is seizing,
seizing with doubt.

A corrupt society filled with guilt,
tubs filled with grout.

Your shaking and crying,
time of dying,
no place for hiding,
from your immense regrets.

The town has spread,
your mind has fled,
while it finally kicks in,
this is the end.

A new beginning
fighting your madness.
As it takes over.

Your head is flying,
body decaying.
Light lifts away,
your finally staying
at home.

Your all alone,
no one around,
none on the phone.

Your body is weightless as decaying your mind,
your body giving out,
you cant tell cause of the lying
that the drugs did to you.

Your fingers are purple,
glowing with light.
Tempting your fate,
out of your own spite.

Doing it again,
why couldn't you wait.

are you losing your mind?
or are you free.

Time is running out,
time to let off steam,
my love.

Is it your time
Who are you?
Who were you again,
my friend.

It is I,
someone you forgot,
ive found you once more,
time for your rot.

Grab my hand
and ill take you away,
to a safer place,
a better day.

Falling away from your sink,
your mouth is foaming ink,
as your eyes pop out,
no time to think.

Since your mind is decaying,
decaying again.

Is it to hard to stay clean,
am I being too mean,
as I am your foe,
you still have no meaning.

Fighting conciousness,
your falling away,
time to escape
to a safer day.
