TERRIBLE (HUMAN) I am tired of being told to let go of my past I did that But I sit back and watch and see history repeating itself all too easily I been at war with myself about this, someone really betrayed me, time has passed, but the heart doesn't forget I've wanted and thought of revenge, but most of the time I just want to forget it Let God read this Isolation is a tool, loneliness is a weapon Does she have a heart, or is she simply just too heartless? She's nothing more than an addiction that you have to detox From your mind, body, and heart I'd rather be hated for what I say than to be loved for my silence Her writings contains observations on the subject of love She may not be important to you, but she is to me The world is a dark place However, no one holds the light And if you don't see my message, see your way out Cantus Firmus So empty, so phantom empty I am the dog, you hold the leash I am the slave, you are the master I am the graduate, you are the degree No, a revolver has a drum that revolves In the throats of love, I was weak, no match for her But, the goodbye was sad, strangely unforgiven I understood that society had no room for me, and I had no room for society, I never have To go to the dreamy like society, to the nocturnal side Was like changing sides in a war It's like the blind leading the blind
