Bitter Revenge

I want to be alone
Just leave me where I belong
In the gutter, in the dust
With the mold, the rot, the rust

I don’t deserve any better
Because I really wasn’t all that clever
I didn’t think quite fast enough
This road of life is pretty rough

But it gets worse, it always does
I’m lost in life only because
You pushed me away
Now I’m lost, in gutters I lay

I should’ve known not to trust you
But the problem is, I really wanted to
We were so very much the same
Or was that just a part of your little game

The game you played on my mind
Where you watched me try to find
My wits, collect them and fight right back
But in my tires, you’ve placed a tack

Like a thorn within my side
That I’m always trying to hide
It hurts, but if I take it away, I start
To simply fall apart

The wind from my sails, no ground under my feet
Nothing left to hold onto, so I weep
I break down and cry for the first time in years
As I am barraged by my demonic fears

So cut me up and bruise my heart
Laughing as I fall apart
But just you wait, I’ll pull out that tack
And with it, I’ll stab you in the back
