As I lay dying

Contributed by 2bruisedandbeaten4you on Friday, 10th September 2004 @ 02:49:07 AM in AEST
Topic: DarkPoetry



As I lay Dying.
The screams start as the knife slips in
The screams start as the pain begins
The blade hits the skin and sinks right in
The blade bites the bone and I start to moan
The pain is intense but the eyes will not close
The pain is intense but the mind still knows
This is for the best and the best is for me
This is for the best so don’t cause a scene
Just cut the flesh from the bone
Just cut the flesh, drive the point home
The blood starts to flow and drip from me
The blood starts to flow and fill me with glee
The pain is a pleasure that few will know
The pain is a pleasure so hard to control
I cut and I slice and I grit my teeth
I cut and I slice and I remove the disease
I bleed and I drip and blood stains the floor
I bleed and I drip and they cry out for more
The voices won’t leave and they haunt me for days
The voices won’t leave, they won’t go away
So I beg and I barter for the silence of death
I beg and I barter with my dying breath
But they heed not my words and disdain all my thoughts
They heed not my actions or the deeds I have wrought
They judge the heart and the heart is not pure
They judge the heart and then show me the cure
Carve the diseased organ out they say
Carve it out and throw it away
You have no need for a heart they exclaim
You have no need for a soul, so they claim
Sell those to me for a wonderful price
Sell them to me for a wonderful life
You can be rich and have all you want
You can be rich and have lots to flaunt
But in the end you will burn just the same
In the end you will scorch in the flame
So live while you can and enjoy all you please
Because this world is a ***** disease
And we are the cure, the medicine you seek
But I have heard all these lies before
I have heard all these lies and much more
They are all false and the voices they lie
They are all false and much as they try
To lead me astray and hope not for Him
Because I know the outlook is grim
I still trust and have faith that He’s real
And to His evelasting love I appeal
To cleanse me from my filthy ways
And to never again let me stray
From his path and the life he offers to me
And so to Him I send my plea
Wash me savior for I have sinned
I have sinned again, and again, and again
I ask for forgiveness and the grace to believe
That for my faith everlasting life I’ll receive
So as I lay here, bleeding to death
I ask for Your mercy with my dying breath.
