Dear destruction
I was tempted
But would sooner bleed to death
Before you got the best of me.

They're closer than they were before
I am surrounded
So do me in
You motherfucking coward.

Imprisoned by permanent horrors, I thrive
Betrayed of afraid or alone, but alive
Because and in spite of these scars, I've become.
I'm breaking off fingers, one by one.

(Breathe Deep)
And I know I'll fear again
(Drink Long)
But I know I'm here again
(Rest well)
And just like the last time
(Stay strong)
This won't be the last time.

Split my skull
My eyes glaze over
The gnashing sinew pops
And screams, but not me.

So have my flesh
Shred skin to smithereens
But you can't touch the core of me
Or anything it means.

No.

I wipe away all of the blood from my eyes
To see all your novelty nuanced with lies
In irons that wreak of your devious design
I'm breaking off fingers one by one
It's a hell of a time.
