Eternal Shadows
There he stood
The symbol of my suffering
My own personal hell wrapped up with a pretty bow
A knife encouraging my self-mutilation
Waiting for me in my nightmares
To show me I can't run, I can't hide
I'm bound to my sins forever
No matter how much I plead with sleep not to claim me
There is no escaping him
I can't fight
Once his ice cold eyes catch mine
I'm paralysed
He smirks knowing he can see into my soulless depths
The regret claws at my withering heart
My mistake cost me my sanity, left me alone intoxicated with remorse
I once stood tall
Now I'm mindless prey
I gave into the deadly mortal desires
And I'm now paying for my own selfishness
Punished to run from the affliction
Bullied by the darkness for all eternity
He pulls my face towards him forcing me to look
Forcing me to relive the pain I caused
The images cut their way in
I beg, the despair bringing me to my knees
My screams become muffled has he sews my lips shut
My pleas become jammed in my throat as I am silenced
All I can do is stare as he slowly pulls out my heart
Smiling as he watches the blood seep through his fingers
There's no escaping your guilt
He sees the lies hidden beneath the surface
Lost in the darkness, my fate as been sealed
The bloods on my hands
Will you die?
Will you kill?
The hate works its way upon my face
As I recall the option I chose
The words leave a bitter taste in my mouth
But nothing compares to the pain I inflicted
No one loves a killer
