God You have cursed me Betrayed me Deprive me God A feeble mind Fading Flailing God Nothing blooms here Blackened Sickened God Take me away From my Own self The corners of my mind Swallow every thought Erectile hairs, snarling snares Bring me to my knees This roof is caving in These walls are wearing thin This house is crumbling Onto everything Death in future Loss in my fortune Lies only I believe Restless, relieved God You have cursed me Betrayed me Deprive me God A feeble mind Fading Flailing God Nothing blooms here Blackened Sickened God Take me away From my Own self Prisoner to my mind A cliché, to my dismay Reassured, lines blurred Between fate and choice Never was, never be Forgotten effigies All the roads I'll never take Splinter and break Tunnels end with no light If the end was ever in sight Released into a haze Freedom in a maze How can this head shelter Sanity and psychosis? How can this psyche Breed logic and lunacy? Am I slave to reason? Do I dictate compulsions? An animal with a god complex This is pathetic Selfishly prophetic Do I rejoice Enslaved to my choice? Like old children before me My questions beg, “is this real?” Let facades adore me Bring myth to my zeal If there's no truth I don't need choice No absolutes No need to hear my voice No need to intervene My id and super ego Dispose my will and ethos Settle in the comfort In removing me from myself Sink in the warmth In the void's embrace Goodbyes from the start Destined to come apart Skin come undone Breath fades away Closure's begun Senses will fray Why do you keep me here? Trapped in flesh, lust, and fear? Is this a joke on souls you've broke? Purgatory and old frontiers. What do you get from a pawn like me? I'm as useless as a hollow plea I have no purpose, we both know. A spiraled orchard where nothing grows. Living – through fragments of my former self Trudging – through the murk, grit, gruel, and dirt I'm begging in the only way I know how To tear my body, mind, psyche, and soul apart My God of Destiny I did everything I could To rip myself limb from limb To sacrifice for my penance My debt for my existence But it will never be enough, will it? Even if I grind myself to dust? To return to the abyss in bliss This will not fulfill my fate My God of Destiny My destiny Like all others I've learned my fate I am here to suffer

Starless 12:09
Sundown dazzling day Gold through my eyes But my eyes turned within Only see Starless and bible black Old friend charity Cruel twisted smile And the smile signals emptiness For me Starless and bible black Ice blue silver sky Fades into grey To a grey hope that oh yearns To be Starless and bible black Sundown dazzling day Gold through my eyes But my eyes turned within Only see Starless and bible black Old friend charity Cruel twisted smile And the smile signals emptiness For me Starless and bible black
