Unleashed

The sun sets again, My shadow my only friend. Memories of what had been, Flooding inside again.

Curled up on the floor, My body writhing even more. A demon within fights to be free From the fragile shell that’s me.

Flesh turns to fire in an instant When you’re left with only pain. Rage, wishful power it can grant. If you’re ready to leave a blood stain.

Lose your humanity to the beast And cut through this world of apathy. Forget love, peace, and honesty Because it’s time to set it free.

The moon casts an eerie glow, A voice telling me things I know. That voice in the back of my mind, Reminds me it is killing time.

The line between good and evil is hard to find Without a conscience to tell what’s a crime. Anxiety creates ripples in your mind Taking all sense of place and time.

Flesh turns to fire in an instant When you’re left with only pain. Rage, wishful power it can grant. If you’re ready to leave a blood stain.

Lose your humanity to the beast And cut through this world of apathy. Forget love, peace, and honesty Because it’s time to set it free.

The sun rises on a battered man, On his knees, too weak to stand. He wakes to a day of tears again, Right where it all began.

Dead but somehow breathing, Hanging on to life by thin strings. Cursed to suffer this awful sting Until once again he becomes that thing.
