"Your Infectious Greed"

Broke into your mind to make you lust for me,
Now I'm so tired of living here with you,
You suffocate me for your self-indulgence.

Gave you more than what you deserved,
Just so you would stop and pass-out.
Then I'd lie awake next you feeling defiled,
To scream my pain and agony into your ears.

You infected me with your poisons,
And where I live is where you ruined me.
Every night I just wish you would hear me,
'Cause of my screaming. "How do you not wake?"

Your venom sank into the depths of my clothes.
This infection makes me feel empty and wasted.
I'm just so sick of you and your antics,
Just let me live without all your greed.

Let me leave and live without you,
You who destroyed me and took who I was.

    So Incredibly Kick A$$!

    The only mistake I could find is that line 6 should read "Then I'd lie awake next to you feeling defiled,", other than that, this poem was great.. incredibly intense, powerful, crazy good. Actually I have to agree with Ms. Black Eyeliner's comment below me, she said exactly what I am thinking. Plus I also want to thankyou for picking this song. I've never heard Flyleaf before and I think I'm going to start listening. Great write and good luck in the contest!
