I want to grow, but I can only fester
In this decaying hearth
The truth's leaking out through a hole in my conscience
Intermingling with my lies
Nobody wants me, or cares that I'm here
They all just want me gone
I am un-needed, as worthless as dirt
Contrary to the alias I stand by
So before I leave, just remember this one thing
And when I leave, it's the only thing I need
Just forget my name
Constant downfall
Somehow, penance is out of reach; they're
Duly implacable, 'cuz I'm the way I am
My iniquity's always the catalyst for ruination
Isolation's an instinct now, like
Stringent chains that forbid escape
Misanthropic, and dirt-ridden
They loathe me, so
I plan escape in spite of all the disbelief
My life as an Antichrist has
Demonstrated the meaning of
Desolation for me and all involved
So before I leave, just take me as a
Lesson in the irony of your
Dreams, and what the world wants you to be
The ideal me is dead
Tortured and k**ed just for sport
And left out to rot in the sum
Of every dark thought in my head
I wish just to hang on and live (NO)
And let my ego meet it's demise (KEEP IT ALIVE)
My demons will soon lose their voice (WE KILLED YOU LONG AGO)
With departure, I'll rise
(YOU'LL END UP IN THE SAME PLACE YOU BEGAN)
