In Coveting Ways

Through this thievery I'm cheated of my precious time Anaemic, starved, in depravation Hope once cherished lost Pawn, prisoner - Your blood is not your own A thousand apathetic eyes Yet not a single tear A different kind of slavery Seemingly chosen Thieves are what you are Bought right from the start World-order degenerate Preaching scavenger art (I dreamt the world was a better place than it is...)

Burrowing deeper down To where life is stripped to its core What lies hidden must be found Letting it go, vanquish my fear To what extent is life imposed upon us? To what extent do we lead it? I wish I could wipe the slate clean I wish you all would Enshrouded in darkness My heart is black but shining Falling into a lifelong slumber Eager to face this dark night of my soul Like timeless dreams Reality reveals itself I wish I could awaken from this nightmare I know we all will

I still feel the sting Of my burning crimson passion Determined to take to control Of this one life I've been given Every passive second Submission to rules not set by me Within us all Lie the seeds of endless grace ... And I would rather drink poison Than relive this freezing hell Screaming at the walls Of my charnel prison (of my own making...) It's far too easy To just bury yourself Another man in shackles Fettered by chains of disbelief

How can I blame anyone but myself? There is no challenge in pointing fingers Don't look at me for answers For I myself am drowned by uncertainty How can I change anyone but myself If I'm subject to this hatred? I believe we've lost faith in ourselves Let alone our compassion This machine - driven by ignorance This machine - producing evil This devouring machine - call it mankind How can I bring about change in myself? Pointing the finger at my own weakness Am I a product of this evil Or is it solely my creation? Do not fear the truth - Embrace it!
