Why did you do this?
Why did you do this to me?
Why did you do this to me?
I’ve caved, I’ve bent, I’ve broke my soul.
This heavy **** weighs on my head
and leaves me staring at my feet.
The danbed don’t deserve this,
so why must you damn me
and **** on my head?
My spirit is broke.
My will is broke.
My patience is useless.
My feet and my car
can’t get me far enough away,
And I hate you in my dreams.
The path I stride was set in place
long before these briars grew
waist-deep and poison,
turning my heart and vision black,
but there’re no choices in this matter,
So I walk on and crumble.
The breeze of the day blows dust
from the clay of my skin,
and slowly I am fading into a coward.
While even two specks of dust remain though,
I will continue to see and seek out my goal
of annihilating and resurrecting you.
You, dear craftsman, are the one who holds
my earthen skull to your ever-turning grindstone.
Believe it or not. Realize it or not.
Acknowledge it or not. I hate you.
I hate who you are.
I hate what you have done.
I hate your selection process.
I hate the thoughts you keep secret from the world.
I hate the way you mirror me.
I hate the way you reflect everything I hate about myself.
I hate that you choke me with my own guilt.
I hate that you cripple my friends and make them vegetables.
I’ve healed. Therefore, I know you must be able to.
In seeing my own weakness, I offer you a compromise.
You go away. Let me think of myself as a good person.
In exchange, I will love you. I will check you in, and make you better.
I will be for you the brother you need me to be
if your stupid eyes never meet my blackened heart
ever again.

The third line in the second stanza should say "The damned don't deserve this". I mean no offense to any danbeds out there who may have been offended by this. |
