To forget where I am right now would be a novelty
Surrounded by glass cages in the stare of death's suppression
Designed to fulfil at any cost, condemned to obey
Your abyss gazes inwards and gives birth to new life, alien and unrecognisable to the untrained eye
Engage the cycle of repetition; perpetual networks of arms bonded together by mutual hatred and linked chains
I was never anything meaningful to you
I was never anything at all

Maybe I could have been anything, but that's been left to your choice since I was born
My place is in ignorance; a subtle contempt for the spoils that I breathe

I cut out my veins in the name of a new future
To think that I once had love for you drives me to newer nihilistic depths
One day, this death will prove the point that I have never lived
Another statistic to pin up on your indexed catalogue of learning experiences
Running on a rusted hamster wheel to infinity or total deprivation
Wires snap and sever the few tendons I have left to rely on, one by one into monotone sunsets
Welcome to my new form, mute, paralysed, resigned
Yours

All hope
Decried
Extinct
Deafblind
Cry out
Broken
Condemned
Broken

Feeble
Infirm
Hopeless
Failed

I bled in front of your eyes while you said nothing at all
I gave my everything to be what you told me was right
I'm standing in the blood that I've shed in my grave; a hall of dreams cast to the wind
You hail me as a hero but you know inside I've failed
I'll never forgive all the pain that you've caused through ignorance and sustained lies throughout my years
You could never become something, so I'm forced to become nothing
Gouge my eyes out and let me see again
I'll kneel down in redemption and gorge on your hate
Now you will shine, pure, while my remnants decay
I hope you're happy with your own creation; I hope you live to see what I become
As all I remember burns away, your voice is all that I have left
A voice full of hate and despair, an endless cave of agony
Thoughts of mass murder permeate the air, a total disgust for the human race

One day you will learn from your mistakes

I won't
Obey
Won't feel
Dismay
Your god
Won't save
Dead lives
Mass graves of fucking scum

Lost hope
Deprived
False thoughts
Contrived
End point
No time
Devolve
Resigned; you're fucking scum

Punch below your weight
Redeem your fate

You're all fucking scum

Thrown in the mire, you'll sink like the rest
Now worn and vapid, you're death; blind at best

Now rise up, worthless

Blind frustration highlighted through seas of neon and raw despair
This is what I endure for a taste of how you care

Vision wanes as we draw the line

Suspended in the podium firing line, mute audience tranquilised
How does it feel to be 29 in Vancouver, where languages combine?

Vision wanes as we draw the line

Debased
Erased

Close off the night and the truth will return
We're empty and void in a sequence with death
Were those fleeting moments all I'll ever have in some reality that I'll never live?

You lie
Now broken
They gleam
As you choke
They shaped you
Can't fit now
They raped you
Turn against them

Your corpse
Now burning
Last rites
In advance
They scraped you
Garbage now
They failed you
Turn against them

Faded, you fall
Burned hope rescinds

Can't trust pain
Fall the same
Build your cage
Dead inside
Use your fist
To exist
Light the flame
Now desist

Mark your grave
Chosen slave
Worthless gold
Feed the lie
Aimless bray
You're on display
Burn what's left
End the play

I am abuseless
Buried in the hate you crave
I am abuseless
You will not be saved

I've rejected your concept of life
To forge my own path in flame
Distanced from the ether
An emptiness in decay
And all your quests to re-begin
Are only hopes that died within
We'll tread the same endless paths
Never to see the end you claim

You cannot save what you've destroyed

Failed redundance
Don't know where to start
Through eternal winter
We'll depart

I'll burn myself away, my ashes for the sea
Here I'm miserable with a penchant for agony

Another Sunday spent writhing in despair
Staring into the blank; I can no longer care

As the chapter arrived at a close, where we lay suspended, fractured beyond repair, on a terminal journey to absolute nothingness, your eyes finally connected with mine.
As I stared within on these final, puerile moments, I noticed the same contemptuous, spiteful glare from decades before.
Death had reaffirmed your absence of life.
What was I ever to expect?

The sum of our parts
Bereaves us every time
We'll fade into the darkness
It's how we choose to shine
