Trapt

Breaking down
Crumbling
Cracked cornerstone
Weakened foundation
Shadows bend so close to me
I'm not liking what I'm seeing
Not liking what I'm feeling
Sinking ever deeper
Seven years of dust and I-
Can't heft myself up
To stellar space
Instead I'll lay here in the mud
As shooting stars rain down on me
Hailing down, dented frame
Molding the name
Jezebel
Judas of the sheets
I'm just another notch
And you're just a whore in my song
Want to act on this violence you make me feel
But I hold back my power
Like Ra with the sun
I want to kill the weakness within
And save myself from another with your face
Snakes by any name
Wadjet or Jezebel
Your name is venom
Stings my ears and stains my brain
But it's all my fault
Missed your waving flags
Didn't hear you when you said
Never get close to me
But I was trapt-
At first glance
-you had me
Charmed and bit
Atrophied my muscles
Then left me without a crutch
To break down
And crumble
