how i killed the world

Contributed by Cancer on Monday, 28th July 2003 @ 12:35:00 PM in AEST
Topic: DarkPoetry

it started with pills and booze
and deep seated rage
in my mind, a plague was spreading

i never understood why i was different
why "they" hated me
what was wrong with me

(i do this out of love)

all i wanted was to feel alive
all i wanted was to feel something real
instead, i sit here, alone again

alone again

what the hell happened to me
what happened to my life

for every religious zealot
whose glassy stare promotes ignorance
for every *****-eyed Cyclopean whore
whose lustful glare promotes infidelity
for all these things and so many more
i load my gun and aim it at the world

stamp me with a barcode
and put me in line
bull***** me to Death
and save god the time

i look at this world
and see Nothing worth saving

(my world stops
screams in my head
bleeding
and spinning
whirling dervish
their eyes are pleading
their mouth are moving
but all i here are the same two words
over and over and over
"do it do it do it"

gunshots, then silence)

will the ocean cleanse me
will it make me whole
and when i draw it into my lungs
will it take me home

i'm gonna set the world on fire
make you all ugly like me

did you ever really notice
i never really cared

(in soft twilight
i strip in the ocean
waiting for your ghost
waiting
waiting for you to kiss away my sorrow)

locks and bars will not keep me
pills and therapy will not help me
soothing words and teddy bears
can't make this go away
your helping hands and apologies
are far too ***** late

when they scream inside
my eyes roll back
and i hide
but, i can't hide forever

"i'm gonna set the world on fire
make you all ugly like me"
