mirrors tell not all
you can look hard, but still you?ll see
what prompts the sorrow in your heart
silvered sheens feed your fire of self-pity
both of you ravaging at your throat
quickly, quietly now
you wouldn?t want to lose your own battle
now would you?
listen to the dust-laden air
it knows more about you than you know
about yourself
separate and condemn
springing to life from within
I and I
tell me I?m wanted but no one wants me
rippled thoughts grow greater by the hour
you let destruction build, higher and higher
deeper and deeper
scream, rip, tear, hurt yourself
the sickening fight ensues
lost in your own nightmarescape
there is no good side to your heart
if you?d but separate for one moment
as you try to punish yourself into one person
you?d notice that some things in this fucked up world
really do matter
(children die, mothers cry, politicians buy...the lie, tell me why)
and your black little problems ain?t one of them.

sorry bout that
