Herdeherdenhein
Ripped in half by the word of something so silent
Spreading apart the seams of a world utterly violent
I am looking inside the void, the burning, feeling spirit
Desperate eyes burn me, wound me, destroy my wit
Slowly prey on my flesh as you gaze upon this corpse
Wander through time as my sanity slowly but surely warps
You ate it all, cursed it all, turning me into a rabid beast
Surely you will not add another limb to the endless feast
Breeding more lies and deceit as you sow your madness
I am forced to reap consequences of your foolish actions
I thought we were herd and all, at your beck and call
But when we could've formed an uniform, chaos was law
Maybe the scars that your bites have left are not infected
Maybe by your words and your touch my brain is infested
But the promises kept have birthed many of these tumors
And I fear I may spawn this filth until my mind sunders
"That's it? You are not going to say anything?"
"Well, I don't have anything to add."
"Oh. That's good. You have a... tendency to overreact at times."
