Ripping apart my own existence

Fashion my flesh with thread

Mangle myself for this disguise

Then bind all of the sutures that make me whole again

Deny these voices that I have inside

Telling me to die, my sanity now subsides

Lacerations are in line, refine and reconstruct myself this time

Create this design and untie these knots that I have inside

They're entwined

Remind myslef of the troubled times

I find there is no peace so I must release from life

Justice will cease for I will appease my mind

"All that which is just, is only held

Held in the eyes of the wicked!"

Wicked eyes staring down on me

I despise this weakened side of me

And now I'll desecrate myself, by rearranging me

I will never be complete, so I'm striving only to be deceased

I'm embarrassed, I'm ashamed

I must hide myself for I am strange

I am nothing, I'm confused

Because all of my life I've been abused by these things

Sever the strings that restrict my feelings

And what I am

Battered with sin, a broken man

Dying within, it's time I stand
