THINE OWN UNAVAILING ENDEAVORS
I have walked this earth
On broken and bleeding feet
Pushed to pull you from the dirt
But with thy eyes you can't see
I speak to deaf ears
I reach to dead flesh
Placating with wasted breath
I taste poisoned air
I smell meat that's dead
Expelling my wasted breath
I bleed for you
But you won't weep for me
Alas, it lasts forever
Thine own unavailing endeavors
I have worked this earth
With broken and bleeding hands
Kicked to lead you from the dirt
But thyself is fucked and damned
I seep from spent veins
I seek what can't be
Dissecting what should be dead
I'm left with nothing
I need what's denied
Exorcising what in my head
I bleed for you
But you won't weep for me
Alas, it lasts forever
Thine own unavailing endeavors
I WON'T SUCCUMB
TO HUMANITY'S
CURSE OF
MORALITY
i speak to deaf ears
i seek what can't be
placating with wasted breath
i'm left with nothing
i smell meat that's dead
expelling my wasted breath
I bleed for you
But you won't weep for me
Alas, it lasts forever
Thine own unavailing endeavors
On broken and bleeding feet
Pushed to pull you from the dirt
But with thy eyes you can't see
I speak to deaf ears
I reach to dead flesh
Placating with wasted breath
I taste poisoned air
I smell meat that's dead
Expelling my wasted breath
I bleed for you
But you won't weep for me
Alas, it lasts forever
Thine own unavailing endeavors
I have worked this earth
With broken and bleeding hands
Kicked to lead you from the dirt
But thyself is fucked and damned
I seep from spent veins
I seek what can't be
Dissecting what should be dead
I'm left with nothing
I need what's denied
Exorcising what in my head
I bleed for you
But you won't weep for me
Alas, it lasts forever
Thine own unavailing endeavors
I WON'T SUCCUMB
TO HUMANITY'S
CURSE OF
MORALITY
i speak to deaf ears
i seek what can't be
placating with wasted breath
i'm left with nothing
i smell meat that's dead
expelling my wasted breath
I bleed for you
But you won't weep for me
Alas, it lasts forever
Thine own unavailing endeavors
