Serrated Savior

Knowledge is suffering
Ignorance is bliss
But those who suffer
Are those who live

Because to live is not so sweet
It is to pass down empty streets
And you run, run, run
With rabid dogs at your feet

There is no water
No bread of life
No milk of human kindness
Just a saving knife

Serrated savior
Lay rest to this labor
Mingle with red rivers
Beneath the flesh
This blackened heart
Lives to disort

Dead in Me

Drew my first breath
Gagging on a silver spoon
But the enemy inside of me
Greedily consumes

Darkness falls fast
On the brightest stars
In the madness
We all lose our spark

I pine for rest
Crawling towards solitude
But the dead in me are running free
All my pain exhumed

Darkness falls fast
On the brightest stars
In the madness
We all lose our spark
