This begins with a broken man and his tears
This is a man finally tired of living
He is ready to give up, to answer death's sneers
To be rid of the frigid hate life keeps giving
See all his demons within his haunted eyes
They are the manifestation of his self harm
The cuts, the bloodshed, he gave into their cries
He is committed to embracing pain's charm
Observe his scars from life touching him
See that he has always suffered in silence
Afraid to speak out, who would save him?
He tried to save himself through silent violence
He now cuts to keep his insanity from showing
But he is being torn apart, splitting in two
One part is still fighting but it is slowing
The other is just broken, cracks showing through
But he will soon find his way to break free
He will escape by committing the final act
He now gives his eyes one final sight to see
Before taking up his destructive deadly pact
He will leave his body laying upon the scorched land
Just a hollow, scarred relic of self abuse left behind
Laying there amidst the waste and bloodied sand
His broken self left for the world to find.
