Your self-fulfilling prophecy
I say take your medicine
swallow the insects that infest
don't allow this phantom to ripen within
reminisce the cloudy delusions
notice the sounds of impending doom
a broken scream echoes, shattering the melancholy past
consuming all that is shiny and light
draining the illusion
like a clock counting backwards
don't question this foreign authority
make amends to the scavengers
say good bye to yesterday
prompt what is foretold
this paranoia is the way
starve your damned soul
eat your blackened halo
indulge us this genesis replay
only my demons shall bear witness your nakedness
unhinge the deepened shame
donate your last shreds of hope, rip open every flaw
expect the condemned to applaud
submit to the inevitable feast of your infection
while the titans savor the crumbs you shed
this cannibalism is a blessing
let the hope trickling down your chest navigate the way
purge yourself
and here in my conscience you will stay.
