Bleeding Demons

Bleeding Demons
 
Hell's sinking.. Swallowed Envy, they're reeling in self-pity
And I really hope this hollow, empty feeling is quelled swiftly
'Cause that's not my heart beating, believe me.. It's a distress signal
Got a large demon to feed and we could be less vigil..
Hear it howl as the sun starts to fall
You should fear the nearest town for the blood marks us all..
Nation of zombies, ungodly and hateful..
You take it; it's not me, but oddly I'm grateful
For the pain that you've caused me.. And all that it may bring
It's true, you did haunt me with talk of such great things
Building success on the backbone of this anguish..
That was home, the last throne you could vanquish
A vast unknown.. Last poem in a language; I'm finally free..  
This is all that I am now, and rightfully me..
A beacon of madness where breathing is non-conformity
You leech on the sadness, and teach it to conquer cordially..
Why the apology?.. Fight the ideology
And silently, you'd lie to me, despite divine theology
Surrounded by idiots.. Clowns and insidious people
Countless are hideous, found 'em drowning; this city is evil..
Still, I see the good in it..
Still, I see what could have been
What should've been, what would've been
If you could see the good in him..
You're just too deep in your favorite sin
True.. You needed new demons; brood, sleep, and take it in..
