Slaughtered Hope
I'm obsessed with the sadness
Rotting quietly in relapse
Waiting patiently for remission
Slowly dying from this addiction

Flooded regrets
Constant remorse
And the reminders of my mistakes
Shallow goodbyes
Pathetic shame
And the miseries of yesteryear

I stare at walls to pass the time
My eyes reflect my home
That is born of sorrow
Cobwebs invade my bones
Insects feed off my flesh
And breed creatures of disеase

I’m searching for connection
Thе needle in the haystack
Some form of attachment
The thread within the fabric
Butchered dreams
Slaughtered hopes
And the remnants of my ambitions
Lost destiny
Dead future
And the wreckage of my desires

I stare at walls to pass the time
My eyes reflect my home
That is born of sorrow
Cobwebs invade my bones
Insects feed off my flesh
And breed creatures of disease

My heart shrinks every time I'm alone
Soon I won't have a soul left to kill
